...green color is an indication of bacterial infection of the gut, ie enteritis, but NOT always. Sometimes it's just indicative of a transient microfloral (bacterial) imbalance. In context, is the snake feeding and deficating normaly by your estimation? If the green tint is limited to the urate (white) deposits this is better than if it also affects the feces (black/dark brown). If the feces are NOT well-formed this is also indicative of enteritis. If the green continues a vet check is in order.

Good luck!
