Is this poop or regurg?

Is this poop or regurg? - No pics... I promise -

My first instinct was to snap a picture and post it here... but frankly I think we've all seen enough snake poop!

It's not as liquidity as it normally is and I am sure I still see some skin fragments... However the last meal she ate was this time last week (I am preparing her meal as we speak) so I just wanted to know if it was common, or at least plausible, for a corn snake to have patially undigested defication or if she did, in fact, regurg... She DID have a large meal last week...

Thanks, as always, for the endless amount of support this webpage offers!

Yeah, it happens, especially with large meals and/or in lower temperatures. I've had hatchlings pass half of their meal nearly intact along with half fecal material and urates. If it's just too much for them to fully digest, they'll either gurge it or just let it pass right through...like corn. ;)
 
Oh my! I was going to make that same analogy.... but I thought it was a bit much. Now I missed me chance! Thanks! Now I won't hesitate to feed her a regular sized meal and may scootch her temps up a bit.

Thanks!!
