Pooping frequently?

[Black_Shark]

Another question,

My 2006 florida kingsnake that I have had since saturday has been pooping like there is no tomorrow! He has pooped 5 times in one week and peed once! I'm inclined to think that it is due to the stress of handling, soap bath( don't ask, look at my other thread) and general hell i've put him through (not on purpose :[ ). He is acting normal, ate normally on monday (ex-breeder mouse) and generally has been a normal snake. The poop is solid, not runny, with urates mixed in. No diarrhea or anything weird. Just looks and smells like god awful poop. Am i right to think that this is just settling in stress poop and that he'll calm down or did I get the grand pooper of all kings?

Edit: He was also fed tuesday or wednesday before I got him. 2) He pooped on the way home from Repticon on Sat. if that counts. That was def. a stress poop.

Also it took him 48-72 hours to digest which is normal.

A very normal scenario. Kingsnakes have very high metabolism compaired to say a ball python or a boa. They are always on the move looking for food. The better your temp gradient is the more often they will use it. The more they are fed the more they use it. They more they are fed....the more poop you will see. Kings poop quite a bit. lol. In most cases they will do it immediately after cleaning their cage. It's believed by many this is scent marking behavior. I somewhat agree with this theory as well. I'm sure your snake is perfectly fine. Post pics if you have the resources. I'm a sucker for a nice floridana.
