QuestionMy snake has has something stuck out of him all day ive been really worried...its not poop..i dont think anyway its not brown..it looks like a pinkish or clear sac type thing..i have been worried b/c when i fed him his mouse..he took in some wood chips with it..so i read the package..and it said that its safe if consumed but not to let it happen a lot...do you have any info on this if so let me know asap thanks so much!!
AnswerHi Nicole. Although I really would need to see a picture I am pretty certain what you are seeing is an infertile egg. So he is actually a she. Even if she hasn't been with any male snakes...females can develop eggs up to a year after they mated. I don't think the wood chips caused any harm. If the sac is still "stuck" in your snake then she is what is called... egg-bound. She will need to see a Veternarian for removal. It could harm them if not removed. Do keep me posted.
