Is this poop ok?

Hi. I just got.a baby corn snake. Never had corn snakes or any other colubrids. I have had a boa before tho and my boas poop was a big pile... I fed my baby on Tuesday and it is now friday... one pinky. And I havent noticed a poop. All I have noticed is this teeny tiny little spot of poop.. actually there is two teeny tiny spots of poop on the shavings... is this ok.. since it's a very small snake? I thought itd be a big pile... well bigger than this.... ok well idk I cant seem to upload the picture I took of the poop.. but it's just a tiny little brown spec... barely noticeable by the naked eye lol.

Young corns have poop that looks like little bird poops. They never excrete in a way that is similar to a boa or python. An adult might sometimes produce feces that have hair in them, but even an adult corn doesn't produce something overly large.

Yes I get that it would be smaller because they are smaller but this is so super small.. I cant believe it. But idk lll. I'm guessing it's fine because the snake itself seems fine. Active and curious.

Most boas (or atleast bcc/bci) will hold their poo for a while. Corns are more regular and will go a few days after eating so they have less poo when they do go.
