    Sick young ball python? Help please!
    My young ball python (female, 7 mo) has always been very finicky eating. When she does eat, she ends up pooping very soft, liquify black stool. A few days later she will continuing pooping, except it is a lot of clear/white/yellow liquid and undigested parts of mice. Last night there seemed to be a little blood along with the mouse globs.

    Should I be concerned? What should I do if so?

    First thing would be to find a vet for a fecal to see whats going on.

    Has anyone had a ball python that has similar symptoms?

    Even if we did, we could not tell you exactly what it is. Even a harmless cold has the same symptoms as Lung cancer. So it could be nothing or it could be something. To determine this you need to get your pal into a vet asap.

    If you do not want to take her to the vet, many vets will run a fecal without seeing the animal. It should be cheap enough. After the fecal go from there.

    +1 for fecal at the least...is she losing weight or showing any other odd symptoms or behavior.
