Is this poop?

Been trying to make sure Zeus is pooping. This is the second time I found this thing that looks like poop, but I'm not sure. Penelope's poop is bigger, so I don't know what baby poop looks like

Weeeeeee! This is great news to me. I'm trying a pinky and a fuzzy next time. Only because I still have one pinky left. Hopefully he takes both

Re: Is this poop?

Small snakes dont produce much poop, until they are eating prey with fur then they poop more, the white is urates and the rest is just crap

this

you don't have to wait on poop before you feed again,as rob said young snakes don't poop a lot.they use up most of the prey so very little comes out

cheers shaun

Re: Is this poop?

white=urates
black/brown=poo
so it looks like both mixed together. I've found it in my little snakes, but the big ones leave me great big piles and smaller urates.

Nailed it. The urates are basically a solid form of pee. You find them more often than poo.

I knew that. I wasn't sure if it was poop/urates or some dirt from the substrate. That was my confusion because it's so little
