Constipation Awareness

Just a little PSA for anyone who is a single blood/borneo/sumatran parent. Make sure to check for constipation and log when your snake poops. Mine hadnt poopes in like 6 months.

Towards his vent, there were bumps that felt pretty hard in his tract. These were hardened urates. I soaked my boy for about 20 mins, massaging his lower end, and he was finally able to expel the retained urates. Let's just say he os much happier now. Those things were as hard as rocks.http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...adc2b3be2f.jpg

It would have past it. They can go months n months I've had two go over a year.

I had a Red Blood go well over a year. I soaked her in warm water for a while and massaged her and squeezed her like working sausage out of the skin. She finally released a massive amount of urate and poop. My male is on about an every 6 month poop schedule.
