Question about urinate?

slythergirl Jun 28, 2004 06:00 PM

I came home to find an odd looking urinate in my ball python's cage. It had the usual white part, but some of it was green. Has anyone seen this before? The snake is about 9 months and in the blue stage of a shed.

Green like what? The white urates were green, or it had green feces (diarhea-ish)?

There was greenish looking urate, also had some green softer stuff looked like jelly. Hope this helps.

My pb had urates that were really hard and sort of a greenish yellow color on the outside. The vet said not to worry about it for now (but the pb was going on antibiotics for RI). Sorry that's not really any help is it, because if it was a problem my snake was already on meds for a bacteria. Sorry..

IF you are really worried, get a fecal lab test done.
