My boyfriend finally decided to help my BP Smeagol to poop. It had been more than 6 weeks, and it was looking pretty bad. The warm water soak did the trick, but he had to push on the snake. Holy poop! Even my Siberian Husky was impressed! Who knew all that could fit into one snake?!
It did look like he perhaps had some inflamation, though. As I was watching him (eww), he looked a little rough and red near his bum. I think it has subsided.
I have never had this problem before...yowza. I'm hoping this is a rare thing, and will not become common.
