Re: ? about poo!
Yay poop! LoL 
Back to the "business" at hand(and keep your hands out of your mouth). Normal ball python feces should resemble cat feces, minus the "gag-a-maggot" stench of cat feces. It should be firm as loose stools indicate parasites(or sometimes an off day).
My girl tends to wait until a day after she sheds to let it all go. Such fun. At least I get to save the sheds, as she doesn't leave me little wrapped presents everytime, LoL. But hey, at least they are usually kind enough to WRAP the "presents" beforehand
It's always good to get a fecal done at least once per year. Shouldn't cost more than $10-$20. Take a small sample, half a teaspoon is a good amount, place it in a paper towel, in a ziplock baggie, and place it in the fridge until the next morning when you can drop it off at the vet's. There's no need to keep the feces moist or anything. I've done fecals on rodent poo that was over a week old(think HARD to break apart) and still found parasites galore. It's better if it's fresh, but if it takes one or two days before you can get it to the vet, it's ok.
Anywho, that's your up to date poop talk for this evening.
