Call a vet and tell them you want to bring a fecal in.Sounds like you have nematodes but without a fecal you cant be sure.Make sure it's fresh when you take it in.What a good vet will do is prescribe panacure and show you how to use it at home.My vet sends it home with me in syringes,no needles,presribed for the correct weight of your snake.Im assuming your husbandry is correct?..Paul

I have always heard that diarehhea meant parasites. The stool should be firm. I have found that feeding my neonates rat pinks gives them loose stool but not diarehhea (sp??). Better to be safe then sorry. It'll probably run you $75-$100.
Good luck
