Hello,
My young cornsnake Geisty was fed a pinky five days ago. Since then, while handling him, he has released something two different times. The first time, it was mostly a liquid with some white power type stuff (and I tiny bit of brown) and the second time it was mostly brown and a bit less liquidy, and also included a yellow powder type substance. The first time it happened, I cleaned it up off the floor and didn't smell much. The second time it still didn't smell horrible, but the yellow powder specifically smelled bad.
From what I've read, I think the first time was a musk (with a tiny bit of poop that got released) and the second time was an actual poop (since it was mostly brown). Should I consider my snakes poop completed for this meal? I'm just not sure whether it was poop, musk, or something else perhaps. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Oh and btw it's an Amel Motley if anyone's interested ;)
