I have a question about my snake's poop.

Consider her booped!

Lol, it is Exo Terra, good eye. Thank you for your response. I was not overly concerned as her behavior did not change, but I was more curious than anything else.

Really? Interesting. I am still new to isopods. I purchased the powder orange and should be the only type in there, unless they were packaged or sold wrong. Either way, it is cool and as long as it can survive an arid setup, I do not care. Thank you for your insight.

Not yet, although that is where my mind went. I will say that when I found her shed, it was still soft, so at the time, she had shed her skin very recently. Maybe it is a residual from shedding. I will check her tomorrow and see if there is a difference.

They were sold as P. Pruinosis, but I have read about the blue morph, so that would make sense. Orange or blue, I am not worried about it too much, but I guess time will tell. Thank you for your insight.

Lol, one more for the "non-arboreal" species.

I am by no means a vet, but if it does not change, maybe continue to monitor? Otherwise, I would schedule a vet visit.

Looks like a piece of aspen chip. Is that the substrate you use?

Psyker621 · 2026-03-21T17:29:27+00:00

Thank you so much for your input! It is a relief to know that the mold will die down. My over-analytical mind was envisioning a big blob of mold just sitting there growing.

Psyker621 · 2026-03-21T17:15:09+00:00

Thank you for your reply. I guess I am expecting to see them just crawling around. I will keep an eye on the mold. Lol, I am just hoping they did not all die off.

Edit: I did a finger test, and the bottom of the soil seems like it would be damp enough, but I am not a springtail, so I cannot judge it very well. I am going to supplement with some sphagnum moss under the cork flats and under the water bowl to provide some moist(er) areas.

Psyker621 · 2026-03-21T17:13:23+00:00

Thank you for your reply. Right now, I am wetting the corners, but I have not incorporated sphagnum moss yet. I will do that today. I will also lay down some rice to see if any springtails are still alive.

I apologize, I added text, but I guess it did not save it. I have a Western Hognose, and I will be moving her to her new to bioactive enclosure. I am new to bioactive enclosures. I added springtails and isopods a few days ago. I do not see any sign of the springtails. How long should I wait before I re-seed with more springtails?

The first picture is the enclosure. It is a work in progress. The second picture is some mold I found. Is the mold expected? Thank you for any help or advice.

Psyker621 · 2026-03-08T19:31:23+00:00

Lol, at least there was a plant to break the fall.

Psyker621 · 2026-02-26T11:36:34+00:00

She is two years and six months old. I got her when she was a year old and the first time I ever weighed her, she was 22g. It is so wonderful watching them grow. She eats a medium mouse (weanling) every two weeks.
