    Ball python recently pass. Help me figure out why!!

    So I recently had a ball python pass, which came as a shock because she wasn't showing any signs of being sick. I came home and found she half curled up in her water bowl. As I took a closer look at her enclosure I found some old stool she had left. The stool looked nothing like nothing I have ever seen. I will attach a few pictures. Please let me know if you have ever seen anything like this before. I will answer any questions that will help me got to the bottom of this unfortunate event.

    Pics of poop will probably not help in finding out what happened. I'm sure it will lead to lots of amusing speculation though. If you really want to know, you would probably have to have a necropsy done.

    Sorry for your loss.

    The only way to really be sure what caused it would be to have the droppings examined by a vet and have a necropsy done on the body.
