What it does remind me of is fatty tissue. Why it would come out of a snake? Does it have a smell?
No idea why it would come out of a snake, and it feels alot like fatty tissue of some sorts. its kinda squishy to the touch and it does not have any smell either.
Re: Help... What is this?
Its happened to a friends female i know that passed same thing in the shape of soggie wet eggs. The female was never bred but passed them anyways as any female snake can pass eggs.
But if its a male i would take that substance and get it tested.

Re: Help... What is this?
thats EXACTLY what it looks like... i just confimered with the breeder who i bought him from a while back that it indeed is a HE though...
Re: Help... What is this?
I would keep a eye on him and if he does it again take him to the vet and get tested.
The friends female did this about 4 months ago and has since never done it again. What her vet said was a form of a Snake miscarry

Interesting, I will keep an eye on him because what you posted is exactly what it looks like. identical actually.
Re: Help... What is this?
Like i said a vet is not needed right now if this is first time ever. If it does happen again then take him asap and get some tests done.
If you know how to pop a snake then i would advice trying to be sure it is a male.

Sometimes people pop snakes and see scent glands and mistake them for small hemipenes- especially in baby snakes. I know I have done it a few times myself.

I have a really hard time believe the breeder in which he came from was wrongly sexed when I was told he is a proven breeder and that he's had him since he was a baby. The only way I think it could be a female is if the breeder gave me the wrong animal by mistake.

No ones perfect. I bought a male and when i got it i received a female. It happens.
