Help someone!? I'm kinda concerned! :/

[ndizzleg]

So iwent tolift the coolside hide box where my ball is usualy and i noticed that his meal, which i fed him on friday doesnt seem to be digested, becasue thee still looks to be like a big lump in his stomach. And its monday now! Shouldnt it be digested after acouple days!? And when i lifted the hide box he wasnt laying in the usual "ball" formation. Most of his body was, bt his head was like laying off to the side, kinda away from his body, didnt seem like he was laying right. I wish i could take pics but my camera is broke . Someone help me with this?

Maybe he really has to poop? was the food a lot bigger than normal?

What is the ambient temperature in the cage? How are you heating it and what are you measuring it with?

[ndizzleg]

3 flukers digital- coolside ground: 80-81
warmside ground: 87-89
ambient: 88-89

1 accurite digital w/probe- probe is under the substrate under the warmside hide and that measures 91.8

humidity%: 62

Im concerned, when i lifted the coolside hide, he took acouple of minutes and moved over to the warmside hideand is in there now. But i know he will probably eventually move back over to the coolside hide, he usually does.

he was fed a decent sized fuzzy. and my ball is still fairly young

A fuzzy what? Mouse/rat? There's a good bit of size difference.

And im heating it with a 75 watt infared on the warmside which is on 24/7. An undertank heater on the warmside under the hide. And a nightglo 50 watt on a thermastat turned all the way down(just for a lil bit of heat) and thats on the coolside. But that nightglo is usually onlt on at night when the outside temps drop a lil bit.

Was it f/t??

How big is this tank if you're using all of that to heat it?

Oh and fuzzy mice are much too small for even newly hatched baby Ball Pythons, so I can't see how it was too big for yours unless it weighs 40g. It is possible that it is gas build-up from the digestion process.
