Hey guys, another question here, gotta love a first time snake owner! ;) I fed him last Wednesday, he went to the bathroom this morning, and it looked "normal". However, I checked on him before and saw this in his enclosure, I was just curious if this looks okay?

Yes, that is a variation of normal. In my experience, sometimes my snakes' poop will look like that when they are a bit cool during the digestion process.

That makes sense, as he was always on the cool side since I've had him. Actually today after he said he went over to the warm side for the first time.

That wasn't too graphic. Checking the quantity and quality is pretty common here and is often accompanied by pics. Good news is that we've all seen snake poop before ;)

I've noticed that it is not uncommon for the post shed feces to be of greater quantity an a little different quality than what I usually see the rest of the time. Mine didn't go for ten days (as far as I know) before this shed and it was quite an mega event when it happened!

Mine tend to do the same. At that point it's a big ball of fiber for a snake after everything else was digested.
