    whitish Runny Stool

    Can anyone help me identify, and maybe there is a vet that can help me medicate my snake

    this is the pics of the stool


    he,s not eating for a month already, and during his fasting period he's droping this type of poop twice.

    its whitish color, porridge like texture, not very foul odour, smells like a puke.

    can anyone help me, because its really hard to find a reptiles vet in my place, kind a isolated, any help much appreciated

    your snake looks sick but it might be uric acid, or concentrated pee. according to this ( http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...3190534AAQ5t97 )

    could be a parasite

    I have nothing helpful to add. I've never seen anything like that and I've had a lot of snakes. It doesn't look good though.

    I do hope you took a sample of that and the solid stuff to the vet for a check. If not, please do if it happens again.

    Even if it's a regular vet they can check for parasites.

    How can a vet diagnose something over the internet and without taking a stool sample when your concern is over his stool? Are you just not trying to hear that that's what you need to do or something?

    Even the most distinguished vet wouldn't and couldn't diagnose anything like that over the internet. You need to take a stool sample to a vet, physically, have it tested for parasites. If it is positive, you will need to administer antibiotics, which are prescribed by the vet. I'm sorry, but that's what you need to do.
