I was giving Bumble some medicine and she scared the shit out of me by squirting blood out of her mouth. I panicked and thought I hurt her till I realized that hognoses do that to ward off predators.

"In an attempt to appear injured, hognose snakes can actually make the inside of their mouths bleed, even though they really havent been hurt. Then, the snakes heart rate will slow down. "


God why did I choose to own such a weird little snake.
