For those who feed f/t, poo question

[elevatethis]

Has anyone here noticed a difference in the consistency of feces when you feed f/t compared to that of feeding fresh killed prey? My bp had a bowel movement, the first one she's had since I got her on thawed rats- it didnt look like the normal feces I used to see when I fed p/k. It didn't look like anything that would lead my to believe she has parasites, because she didn't have them before and she definitely wouldn't have picked them up from a feeding recently because they've all been f/t. Just wondering if anyone's noticed a difference.

My ball pythons poo looks smells and tastes exactly the same as when I feed them prekilled. (They're being feed frozen/thawed now)

Tastes? :shock:

Tastes?

LOL, of course! I like to stab them with a toothpick and pop them in the freezer for fun snacks that help chase away the summer heat!

LOL!!!! Tastes? Explain yourself!!!

Haha I smell sarcasm....but yeah, I actually looked at the stool some more, and I think it looked wierd because it looked like there was a lot of fur throughout it. So whatever that means.


Has anyone noticed how people who keep herps aren't squimish about gross things at all? Some of my friends are totally grossed out that I'd even touch a thawed out rat, less keep them in the freezer next to my hot pockets, lol...

maybe its like a hairball but, you know, coming out the other end. it adds texture to your little poo kabob on a toothpick. ha, no really i have no experience on the subject.

Norbert had poop like that once (furry). That was actually the sample I took to the vet when I first got him, and she didn't mention anything about it, so I'm sure it's fine.

ok, i know this is totally off topic but i was trying to quote somthin that elavatethis said about us reptile people not being squimish and i tried to quote it but when i highlight it and press quote selected it doesnt work, it used to work but now it doesnt anyways

Yeah my friends cant believe that i kill mice, since i am such an animal lover the cant picture me doiing anything like that
