Parasites??????

[LifeIsABall]

O.K. guys need some help before going to the vet. About a month ago i took in a baby norm petco(insert scream here) bp form a kid down the street who's mom said noway.First stool half wet half hard o.k thinking maybe parasites second time samething. This snake eats like a horse she/he would eat 5 times a week if it could. Anyhow i have never seen this kind of stool in any of my four other bp's all norms 2.2

So my ? is does this sound like parasites?

Thank's for any feedback!!!

Is the snake gaining weight? If the snake is eating consistently and showing no signs of weight gain I would think parasites was a good bet. Being from petco increases those odds and the only thing I could recommend would be taking some of the feces into a vet to have it checked for parasites.

He/She has not gained or lost weight.

No one can tell you definitively whether or not your bp has parasites. You will need to have a fecal sample checked at a vets to confirm that. It always a good thing to do with a new animal anyway.

Yep I'd get a fecal in just to be safe. Hope the new one is quarantined from your collection. Awfully nice of you to take it in and give it a good home.
