    diarrhea?
    Hello, I have two ball pythons and it look likes they have diarrhea, see picture below. I have only had them for about a month and they both came from the same seller. When I received them, they were both in shed so they only had a couple meals so far. I have not seen a "normal" poop from either of them.
    Has anyone seen this before? I heard that it can be caused by worms and I am worried. What should I do?
    Also, I have noticed that these two drink a lot of water and pee more often than my other ball pythons.

    I would take them to the vet and have fecals done. I would also hope they've been kept very far away from any other reptiles you may have.

    Thank you for the response and I am planning on taking them to the vet very soon. I am very concerned about the yellow mucus "egg" looking things. Is this normally in the white urine pellets or is this abnormal? Has anyone who experienced diarrhea with their ball pythons ever seen the egg like thing?

    Yellow/white urates are normal. Constantly runny poop is not.
