Weird stuff comes out of gravid female

I have a gravid female who pooped some weird pistachio-like stuff twice. Can anyone tell me what I should do about it!?!?! She is 16yrs old, mated about 8 or 9 weeks ago, shed about 6 weeks ago and has not eaten anything since then. So I think she's due to lay soon and I put a box with moist vermiculite in it and showed her the entrance then she did this in it...

I think it's just urates that are colored green by bile. She isn't pooping since she isn't eating. I guess if you're really worried you could put some in a ziplock and refrigerate it and run it by a vet. I think I would probably not be freaking out about it though. Probably the moistness of the lay box made her feel like going, but there wasn't really anything to go. BTW, I would bleach that box and start over with everything clean.

What does it smell like? Normal snake poo smell??
 
wow I probably would be freaking out. I know fasting snakes can have greenish urates, but Nanci, have you seen them this green? hope she does all right for you!
