Hi,

We are new ball python owners. We've had William for a few of months and he is about 6 months old. I find that he does not go to the bathroom very often. The has only pooped 3 times in the last 3 months and maybe peeped about 6 times. And sometimes his urate looks like there's hard yellow stuff mixed in w the white. Almost like a peice of corn. I find when we let him roam free he goes to the bathroom out of his tank more easily. His tank is a 10 gallon and William is 20 inches long. Humidity and temps are good. He has 2 hide outs, one on the cold (approx 75F) and one on the hot (approx 90F), tank temp goes from 80F during the day and 75F at night. Humidity is around 40 - 50 percent. I increase when he's going to go into shed.

Are his urates normal?
