    Theres a pink bubble while pooping?

    okay.. soo here it goes.
    2 weeks ago I bought a tiny ball python from a pet store. (yes I know it's not recommended yadda yadda but I fell in loveeeee and why not give something a better home)
    The husbandry is great in the enclosure. 80 cool side 90 hot side humidity at between 50 and 60. He/She also shed a perfect shed.
    He/She has eaten and will eat again soon. I am trying to fatten him/her up a bit. They were feeding it pinkies!! WTF!
    Anyway, I didn't want to do drastic changes due to stress reasons so we did 2 pinkies the first week and Thursday he had another one and tomorrow were doing a fuzzy. (I really needed the pinkie out of my freezer and didn't want to throw it out so why not). Anyway, today i noticed that while he or she was trying to pass urates his anus? came out an looked like a pink bubble? now I know everyone s going to say prolapse BUT it went back in and everything seems fine now. Is this normal? and no it's not hemipenes either I know what those look like lol.

    NOTE: The fuzzys are the same size as the width of the snake MAYBE a little smaller but either way its the best option until we get a bit bigger.

    Thanks!!

    Perfectly normal. If you watch almost any animal poop (what you do on your own time is none of our business ), you'll see the same thing.

    +1 on no problem. Good luck on fattening him up and GOOD for you on getting yours from a pet store. You got what you wanted and that is all that matters. No yada yada yada from me. :

    Great thing about snakes is they don't keep a calendar on what day they are "suppose" to be fed. My snakes probably appreciate I don't use a calendar either.
