Help! Bulgy butt? Is she constipated?

I've never seen her butt, or any of my other snakes' butts get bloated like this?

Is she about to poop? Or maybe constipated?

Sorry if this is a silly question, I'm still learning.

Is there anything I can do, like a warm bath, or should I take her to a vet?

Snakes can go a really long time without defecating, and she seems like she may defecate pretty soon LOL. A warm bath will help with bowel movements, so if you give her a bath the chances are that she will defecate, and if she doesn't she will definitely defecate sometime during the night in her enclosure.

I wouldnt handle her until she "goes" or you'll be in for a very BIG surprice! on the plus side I promise it smells like flowers!! :rolleyes:

I'm a worry wort. Ugh. :oops:

If you place her in luke warm water (the shower tub does a good job) she will most likely go, or if you have my luck, she wont go and as soon and you put her back in her enclosure and close it, she will make a huge mess :taz:

Or you could clean the tank/tub. They always seem to like to poo when everything is clean :/ grr

Soak it in some warm shallow water like people said. BG does know somebody that drowned a bunch of baby boas, so be careful.

It does look constipated, but not necessarily a problem.
