My friend has a columbian redtail 0.1 and he says that her rectum is protruding outward kind of like a hemorrhoid I dont know anything about boas. He took it back to the pet store that he got it from and they told him that the tank that he is using was to small for a snake her size.now I have plenty of snakes here with me and i have never heard of any such thing that to small a tank your snake will crap out its insides.Could anyone give me some insight on this abnormal occurance?
thanks

if you bought that snake, get an exchange or make the seller pay for a visit to the vet. That snake needs a vet.
