JCP with Diarrhea

hefte Aug 09, 2004 05:25 PM

I had my JCP out in the yard today, like normal, and all of a sudden I heard a really loud farting noise. He pooped about a cup of diarrhea and but didn't seem to mind. He was busy looking around while he did it and didn't seem to miss a beat. He has never had anything but a normal poop before. He has been eating chicks but that is the only thing that is different. Your comments are appreciated, and thank you in advance.

LOL! Thats a funny story...Well, snakes rarely care if they fart so don't know how best to teach your carpet any manners...On a more serious note, the change in diet could be the culpret though I personally have never experienced it in my own snakes as I don't do chicks. I'd watch it for the next go around if he's still runny you may want to take him in for a fecal and see if he's got a parasite load or if he's sick.

She's just over 7ft, and was just about to shed in this photo.
