    Green....poop? Advice???

    My new baby female normal pooped for the 1st time and its greenI know this is obviously NOT normal....and what in the world is causing it? Can't be good...
    I've had her for about two weeks, she's in a 10 gallon, water bowl, hides, a plant (its a qt tank, not all prettified and forest-like) 90 on the warm side, 83 on the cool....ate 2 pinkies (attempting fuzzies this week)

    Though she's a bit on the skinny side, she's active and right now I'm watching her slither around...

    Her-


    The poop-
    Looked at it...nothing squiggly, just the unusual color....

    I don't know why but they don't look green to me. Also how much time pass since the snake defecate and you took the picture? Maybe it dry out overnight especially if the snake defecate on the hot side over the heat pad.

    Just my opinion...

    its not normal but green just means it has something upsetting its tummy but just watch it. if it gets lighter then you're good and they should whiten up you don't have to worry until its neon yellow-green and is really wet not chalky then you have to go to a vet
