Just recently there was a thread about the types of things people jot down like their feedings and poops.....



I keep a record of each snakes feedings and breedings but hadn't been keeping up in the poop department....up until I read that thread...



so..... I was thinking that if I did have one that was constipated it would be good to know what everyone does in that case...... I've read that most just let them soak in warm water and that tends to work in most cases.... what about the ones it doesn't work for?



I used to breed and raise freshwater Discus fish and when they were constipated (Blue Diamonds were good for that) I used epsom salts in the aquarium water and that worked pretty quick and almost everytime.....I've also used it in the past 48 hours before shipping fish..... to clean them out.... (less poop in the bags upon arrival)



So I'm wondering now if that would be a safe alternative before a vet trip....
