How do snakes get rid of their digested food?
-
Do they go to the bathroom like we do or do they just puke it out or what this question is bugging me
-
Snakes digest their food just like most animals; however, the snake excretes both solid and liquid waste from the same hole. This opening, the cloaca, is found at the base of the tail. Snakes eliminate solid waste infrequently, so it is pretty uncommon to find snake droppings around your home.

@layla That's kind of cool
-
@layla I got that off google, so basically snakes poop out their digested food after a while cause their digesting process takes a long time.
-
@layla yeah but how do they do it? Don’t want to sound gross, but do they stop to poop or slither away and a trail of it follows them?
-
@wtfjudith You sound gross. I just lost my appetite. But anyways, I guess they stop and little poop bits come out?
-
@layla always a pleasure
-
