Well i have had my boa for 3 years now and we jsut moved him into his bigger cage 6x3x2. The temps are good there 81 hot side 79 middle and 78 on the cool end. and the problem is that he is i guess peeing or pooping white stuff that becomes pretty hard after a while. i know its compelty natural but he does it like once or twice a week now and he never has done that before its starting to worry me alot..
also there are days that he will spend day and night in his water bowl..

its might be nothing but i jsut wanted to c what you guys thought about it

That is just urates. It is perfectly fine. Although you need to bump up your warm side a bit IMHO.

[mars]

well he does have a hot spot of 90-95

Let me get this straight... He has never made urates before now/ you've had him for 3 years and didn't notice before? how big is his water dish/bucket? How often does he get fresh wa? How often do you clean/scrub/disinfect his water dish?

[AndrewGeibel]

Ya, I'm slightly confused by that as well. However, if it has them now, which is normal, and the temps are alright, then maybe things are going fine now. I was giving them the benefit of the doubt.

@Andrew- you and I are on the same page. I wonder what was wrong with it before O_O. Not passing urates isn't a very good sign...

@OP/Mars- was your animal sick before? what were you feeding it? whats the humidity at? AKA- you should be more concerned with the fact that you hadn't seen them before now, then you are that its doing it now, feel me?

I think the op means he wasn't doing it as often before. I could be wrong though. That's just the way it seems to read. Some clarification might be in order.

[RoyalGuardian]

I agree cause at the second its clear as mud as to what the problem really is.

Mars- is the snake in question the one in your images? That red tail is so pretty! Beautiful animal!

[mars]

he used to do it maybe once a couple weeks
my concern is y he is doing it once or even twice a week
