    Re: Something worrying with one of my hatchlings

    Looks like yolk to me as well--are you sure this baby didn't have an umbilicus still partially attached? Perhaps it came from that.
    Digested yolk is often yellowish too, and the first defecation can look a bit funny, just as with any infant.
    In any case, I wouldn't worry about it unless the snake shows some other sign of ill health, fails to feed, etc. It looks healthy enough in the photo (and feisty).
