Digestive times for corn snake

[machinegun]

I fed my juvenile corn snake last night and this morning I noticed that he defecated on the newspaper. I removed the corn snake from his terrarium this evening so I could replace the newspaper. A few hours later I noticed that what appears to be feces on the newspaper again. My question is it normal for a young corn snake to defecate so often and so soon or did the snake regurgitate the pinkie that was fed to it last night? The mystery substance looks like snake feces and is black in color with some yellow in it and resembles bird feces. When I removed the snake for cleaning I kept handling to a minimum to prevent regurgitation. Also what would a regurated pinkie that was fed within the last 24 hours look like?


Thanks

It's poo. The yellow stuff is urates and doesn't occur with regurges. For future reference, regurges generally smell -very- bad (and not like poo), and the ones I've seen look sort of like a sausage, a beige bag of skin, with not much in the way of a head. Legs and tail are usually visible to some degree, if the prey was swallowed head-first. I think a regurged pinkie would look like a pale blob.
