I have a king snake and she's a year old, I've been taking her to an exotic vet because I thought she had a parasite or infection. We did blood and fecal work and nothing came back positive yet what's been going on with her is that she has blood coming out her vent everytime she goes to the bathroom and when she does it's diarrhea. She also hasn't been eating for a while. The vet doesn't know what's wrong with her and I don't know either. I'm planning on taking her to a better vet but I have no clue what they can do or say
 
I would definitely get a second opinion.

Also be aware that some parasites, such as crypto, don't always show up on a fecal.
 
The "exotic vet" label does not mean that the practice, or that specific vet, deals much with reptiles...it's worth verifying before spending any more money there. A second opinion is a good option; as long as you seek out a vet with reptile experience.
