Please Help!! Not sure whats wrong!!!

My husband and I have several BP's and when we went to check on them all tonight one of them had an EXTREMELY swollen tail. It feels to be fluid filled with one hard spot, feels like a 1/2in round ball, about a inch up from the cloaca, where the swelling stops. It ate a F/T small rat on Wednesday, and we soaked all the snakes in warm water yesterday. Yesterday there was no swelling and only the bulge from the rat it ate the previous day. It doesn't seem to be in pain even when we touch it. The vets office isn't open until Monday and we don't know what to do until then. It is pretty much swollen from the rat to the cloaca. We soaked it again just now and that's when I took these pictures. It is about 2ft long and seems perfectly healthy except the swelling. The temps are 80F cold side to 91F warm side.

Looks like regular sausage butt to me: I bet she'll pass some big poo or urates soon. I wouldn't yet worry.

Poop, a really big poop.

Looks like it, I would give her a good warm water soak.

Definitely a big poop. It'll pass soon.

She might just do it tonight if it's that close...

One of my snakes did this recently. I gave her a warm soak and I gently massaged her down by her vent. I could feel a couple of hard lumps floating around in there. She passed a lot of huge urates!

She hasn't passed anything yet and it still swollen :-( we are still soaking and have done a little massaging. Hopefully she will pass what ever it is soon! She hasn't been moving a whole lot but I'm sure this is uncomfortable for her, I don't blame her.

See if you can get her to move around in her bath, that should help too along with gentle massage.
