Hi, do you know what this could be? It doesn’t look like poop to me. I found it in the ground. Apologies if the picture is disgusting.
It looks like snake poop to me, just with some substrate stuck to it and possibly a little undigested fur in it. Nothing to be concerned about from what I can see.
Thank you for the quick response. It’s just that it doesn’t match the form of what I had found before. Maybe it’s an old fragment I overlooked. It reminded me of a parasite.
I’ll probably end up getting a label for writing silly posts here.
There can be some variability in the size, shape, and consistency of a snake’s poop. Sometimes things just seem to digest and come out the other end a bit differently (not so different from us). So long as you’re not getting a whole string of multiple drastically weird poops, it’s usually nothing to worry about.
And no worries about the questions! I know you’re just being a good snake mom.
Definitely poop. It looks pretty good to me so I wouldn’t worry much. Sometimes when snakes just poop with less moisture in it so it can look like this.
If you’re worried I would just make sure to do a humidity check and make sure the water access is good.
