    Looks like a normal urate (snake piss), I wouldn't be worried. They will often show signs of something being wrong if they stop eating, or are lethargic or have strange/unusual behavior.

    Part of the top makes it look like a shed skin. Was your snake in shed? Most of my snakes will shed in a small ball like that. If your snake was not in shed, it's probably a urate that has some aspen stuck to it.

    That is a urate. Or commonly called, pee. Nothing to worry about.

    You can use it like a seasoning, add like ginger root to food items and drinks.
