    Loose stool within an hour of introducting ?

    So today I introduced my male into my females tub, he got a bit freaked out but seemed to calm down a bit. I went to check on him about an hour later and one of the two, probably him based on where he was, had a loose stool with some crunchy green stuff in it. He denied his last meal so I'm assuming he did what a lot of snakes do when they're introduced to a new area, poop and pee, but didn't have much poop. Should I be worried about this, and should I separate them?

    Clean them and the tub up and keep pairing. Had one of my girls do this last year. Not sure why she did it but they went on to produce 8 eggs later in the season.

    Now there's blood trails in the tub and they're both going nuts. I have no clue what's going on.

    So I guess the little fella roughed his nose up trying to get out of the tub, there's a little scratch on his nose so I guess that's where the blood is from. I took him out, I'll try again in a few weeks.
