Losing weight?

[dave21]

I recieved my 3rd ball python 5 days ago at 112 grams. he was very active trying to get out of his tank the first few days and was very plump.. now he is not active, and he looks very skinny and he looks weak. He is 102 grams now. I havent handled him until today to check him out and after a failed attempt feed. He did pass feces and urates 2 days ago. He is in a 10 gallon, which is blacked out, heat pad on a thermostat, 50 watt red bulb, cypress mulch, 2 hides and alot of clutter. Hot side 95 on glass, cool side is 80 ambient.

The weight loss is from him passing the feces and urates/urine. To go from plump and active to skinny and lethargic in just 5 days seems pretty drastic though, I would put up some pics of him so we can see his body tone/condition right now. He may be dehydrated too.

I saw him drink twice in the past 2 days. Maybe it was from him passing feces and urates. Well the breeder posted him as 110 grams so i was just worried he really did lose all that weight.
