Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Digestion Problem?
I recently obtained a new savu python a few weeks ago... I feed it three small live mice the first week I had it and then two more small ones the following week. They love to burrow and she never seemed to get away from that heating pad. Cage temp was around 85 plus back heat. When I switched her cage, after the first feeding... I only found one small white clump and it was very dense like caulk. I had just fed her the second round at this point. I checked her cage once again only to find another small white dense clump! She is in a jar, her waterbowl... I cant get her out. I was going to try and put some pressure on her vent to see if I can clear it. She just tensed up in there and hissed at me when I tried to get her out. I moved the jar closer to the heat tape and turned it on high.
Any thoughts

The white hard clumps are urates. It's how they pee. It will deficate when it's ready.
I wouldn't use a container they could wedge themselves into for a water bowl. Safer to use a plastic or ceramic crock or tupperware bowl.
Also, if proper temperature gradient is provided the snake will choose how hot or cold it wants to be, no need to put it on the heat. Water bowl on the warm end makes bacteria grow more quickly.
Good luck.
