Question regarding suri i have.. Fecal matter but no food..

jusmebabe Oct 31, 2003 11:17 AM

This guy hasn't eaten a single meal going on 3 months.
He has left small amount of fecal matter.
He is approx. 6 feet and wieght around 10-15 pounds (just a guess).
He is very laid back (meaning doesnt strike, hiss, or bite).
Drinks regularly 3-5 minutes when he does.
I'm not worried just curious why the fecal matter since he hasn't eaten.
He hasn't lost wieght nor showed symptoms of anything so no vet visit.
Just curious about fecal and no food.
Thanx

"Urate deposits" the serpentine equivelant to "taking a leak" he may be abstaining from food due to seasonal changes? (he wants a girlfriend.)
