What is 28-Year-Old Ball Python Feces Look Like?

[jamjackvee]

Hello,
I bought Kaan (STO) when he was still an unhatched egg. I fed him his first piney baby. Now he is 28. He was a gift for my nephew, 6 at the time, eventually, my sister and her husband became his stewards: and now full-circle, here we are! Only, I have forgotten everything I ever knew.

Like for instance, he twisted himself into a pretzel stick for a couple days after eating a good sized rat, and then a HUGE Feces followed, that giant brown mass in the lower left like I have never seen!! Is this normal? Is he ready to eat again? Also, I keep the humidity up, and he appears to have shed, but where's the skin? Confused. Jamie...

Oh Thank You!! When I went over to the tank this morning he was out looking for food. I did not know if I should feed him because I have only had him back for about 6 weeks and I am so far on a steep learning curve. I have him in a more natural terrarium. I also keep the humidity around 70% using New Zealand Sphagnum; but what about the shed? I can tell he shed, I see the fringes of shed skin. There is no skin in the tank anywhere! Is something you experience as well? Thank you for helping me to answer my questions. I will go the guy a rat. Jamie
