    Question Poop or Regurge???

    ok let me first start off by saying that i've come to the conclusion that it seems to be poop to me, but i'm not 100% exact. so this is why i'm making this post to get the ideas of other users. ok, now what leads me to believe that it may be poop is for the simple fact that after playing detective with the crime scene, well as you can see in the pic there are urates, and those obviously come from one end of the snake, then there's this bi-colored lump of some mush which could come from either end of the snake (mouth and or anal region) but what led me to believe that "mush" is poop is that there's a trail leading from the urates meaning it had to all come from the same area, which is the anal region. but what leads me to believe it may be a regurge is that it has a lot of white in it, which im believing is fur and that's something i've never seen. all my BP's poop is brown like a little chihuahua's poopoo LOL. this specimen is from my redtail. so i'd appreciate any and all info you guys have to share.

    Re: Poop or Regurge???

    it does look like a hairy turd, but if you are really concerned just grab something and poke it. if its solid (like a half digested rat) then its a regurge. thats what i would do if i were confused, ya im nasty. but i get results, LOL

    Re: Poop or Regurge???

    What kind of RTB?
    How old is your RTB?
    How many days after feeding did this appear?
    How many days between feedings?..

    I say Poo. Doesn't appear to be digested very well. I would want to know why it didn't digest thoroughly.

    I would say either the temps are too low and he can't digest it enough, or you RTB might have some sort of defficency to where his/her stomach acids can't digest right now for some reason. Definitely a turd though, a nasty poop at that!
