Unhappy Bad news, dont look while eating

My snake had a bad poop this week. I think I am going to get a stool sample in to the vet very soon no matter what. Do you think there is something wrong or is this just ironic? First bad poop, no new behavior. The only new thing that happened was I moved her from aspen to newspaper.

Why are you saying its a bad poop? Aside from it being a little runny, I see urates and feces, and a fair amount, too. Maybe she just "retained" more water?

Yeah, it doesn't look particularily bad to me, either. Just a little runny.

Oh well, fecals cant hurt.

Thanks to everyone for your opinions. I now feel that it was a normal poop, but her poop is usually darker than that and not as runny, so I thought she may be sick because of the change in colour, but since you all think she isn't, I gues she's not! Thanks! BTW i'm going to get a fecal done anyways.

I have a CalKing. The poop does not look like there is anything wrong with it. I wouldn't concern your self with it.
