GTP watery feces

skid Dec 07, 2008 08:04 PM

Hi, I purchased a young Lereh GTP at a reptile expo in October. The snake is beutiful and feeding has never ever been a problem, he/she has taken all the food ever offered and seems to be doing absolutly wonderful. The only issue that may be a problem, is the animal's watery feces. All temps are correct and I mist heavily once or twice a day. Could this be a sign of internal parasites? Any info or advice would be helpful. Thanks!

If it applies, I have found that once you move up to good size fuzzies, their stools will tend to bind up probably due to the extra fiber, calcium, and other goodies an older prey item has. Pinkies tend to make for a looser stool.

thanks for letting me know. I might her get her tested for parasites soon, just in case.
