Small amount of blood on cloaca

[Kourtneyhk]

Hi everyone,

I have a large female I just put with one of my males this evening. Upon doing my evening check, I found that she had left a small amount of blood (a spot maybe as big as a pencil eraser) on the males back. The male with her is an Ivory morph so it stuck out like a sore thumb and gave me a good scare! At first I thought it was a bite but after I picked him up and looked at him, there was a very small urate right next to the blood spot. I looked her over and her cloaca has a small amount of blood
staining around it.

This girl hadn't pooped in about a month and a half and finally did about a week ago. Could she have possibly strained herself and this is what it's from? Anyone experience this before? As I said, it's a tiny amount of blood but has me on high alert!

Thanks!

Some blood is normal when two snakes breed. So they probably locked without you seeing.
