Baby corn acting strange

Hi guys, Don't really know where to have put this thread and I'm really sorry if it's at the wrong place, but I'm concerned for my baby caramel corn snake. He gave me a very strange poop today, basically like the pinky mouse came out hole. I know it's poop as I saw it we it came out. Now something definitely seems odd as he is quite aggressive after this occurrence. He struck at me for the first time since I got him. He still quite small only weighing 18g at. Please any help will be appreciated a lot.
P.S The only change in his viv is that I swopped out a bulb and that I removed a decor plant.
Thanks in advance
 
A photo would be helpful. You actually SAW it some out of his vent? i've never seen anything like that before.
 
Well at the point of me getting to his cage he was either then slithering over it or right by it, if I'm mistaken, but it really seemed to me that it was the case of poop as well like I said it seemed that way and as it didn't smell like regurge at all. Thank for the reply Nanci. Let me know what you think please as I might just be imagining things. I should mention that this morning there was a normal poop in the cage.
 
Was his tail raised when he slithered by it? Does it definitely have actual mouse features? Like, can you identify parts of the mouse?
 
His tail was raised, that is why I believe it is poop. Definitely, you can clearly see that it is a pinky, but as if it is only skin remaining, everything inside is digested, if that makes any sense.
 
I would do the regurge protocol. Skip the next feeding, then on the following feeding, give him half a pink, then the next feeding the other half, then maybe a headless pink.
 
Thanks so much for all the help. Will try this Nanci and let know how it goes. Really appreciate it.
