    Ball Python Not Eating/ Diarrhea

    I have a ball python which I’ve owned for the past 3 years. He has always been my most difficult ball python, going off food for over 3 months at one point. He is now off food again. It’s been 40 days since his last meal. He doesn’t look skinny at all, but has lost around 25g ( he is 1250 grams). He just shed yesterday and he seemed to have a little diarrhea as well. I’m assuming that it is from him not eating. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Bring the stool sample to the Vet with the snake. If your worried. Snake poop can be runny to hard. Going off feed during the season change is normal for some snakes. I have one male that fasts very winter till April.

    Good luck!

    Ok, thank you. I’m not to worried since I’ve had him for so long and all my other snakes are ok. I’ll definitely keep that in mind though if I have any more issues.
