Great. Are these parasites.

[Snizards]

Yes, I can see it. And wow. I've definitely never seen that before.

This is not poop this is a byproduct of urine called urate which is usually white (when people found it, it is usually dry and chalky, here you can tell it's fresh)

In your case it looks like what we call green urate, the green is from bile, sometime it's there sometime it's not.

Thank you BPGator!

And yes Deborah, I misspoke. I know it's urate, but I used the wrong term for it. I'm surprised you think it doesn't look like a parasite, but also your explanation makes sense since it wasn't there before. What causes this, I know in dogs it's hunger, but not sure if snakes have it the same way.

Urates are naturally present in snakes.

Urates are naturally present in snakes.

The urates themselves aren't what I am concerned about, it's the specks in the urates in the picture .

IMO, it looks suspicious. I would double ziplock bag it and refrigerate it to take in for microscopic testing. Because its associated with inappetance is more suspicious.

[PeanutButler]

I will stick it in the fridge for now. I hope it's not too late to cool it in order to preserve it for testing since I hadn't put it in the fridge earlier. :/

If nobody is 100% sure that it's innocuous, I'll see about having it tested. If anyone else sees this between now and Monday and knows what it is, I'd be very interested to hear additional input. Thanks to everyone so far!!

It's just not my day.

Full quarantine, emergency mode here I come. The good news is that the specks look like specks of seaweed, and not bugs. They are green, flat, and leaflike. Upon closer inspection, he also has mites?! The poor thing, I feel absolutely terrible that all of this is happening to him. About to do full checks on everyone. Wish me luck.

Well don't feel like it's not your day bc this is just one of the things that happen when you have reptiles. It's not your fault and doesn't mean that you are a bad keeper. Now bc the animal has mites and mites are bloodsucking pests that means they can also transmit disease to your snakes via the direct contact bloodborne route. This would include things like endoparasites and respiratory disease and general immune compromise. That is why I would be suspicious of the urates output and discoloration and consider having it tested. Is this a definite confirmation of your case? No. Just something to consider. The fact that he is not feeding and has mites is what is concerning. Hope it's negative. Best of luck.
