Not pinkies, but actual furred mice.. what does the stool look like afterward? I've had my marinus for about two and half years and normally just feed her roaches and hornworms, and I'm used to a blackish mess in the water bowl full of pieces of roach exoskeleton. But recently I had a couple of extra feeder mice thawed out that nobody wanted, so I tossed them into her food dish as a treat. Tonight, I noticed two moist, fibrous reddish-brown things in her terrarium. The fact that they were on land was odd, and so was everything else about them. The fiber is too fine to be substrate, so I assume it's hair. It has neither the meat smell that a snake regurge has nor the toilet smell that her stool normally has, so basicaly I'm just trying to figure out which end it came out of and if it sounds normal.
