    Normal Poop?

    My boa pooped the other day, but I didn't see it because it was hidden underneath his climbing structure.

    It was dry so there was hardly any odor to tell, but there weren't any urates around it.. and it was a bit hairy??

    I was wondering if it's normal for it to have hair in it.. most of my other snakes have urates with it so that I know for sure it's poop and I usually get to it before it's dry..

    It was just one dark brown piece that looked like a squiggle of a squished mouse.. but it did look like poop to me.
    I would post a picture but I have no camera.. it's broked. :[

    ss far as i know this is normal because sometimes a lot gets digested some times the hairs too sometimes not as long as you know it wasnt regurged and there wasnt any blood in the poop then you're fine..
