i need some advice help :(

Update:
Friday i fed the pinky with the probiotic and yesteryday i found poop and gues what, the urates are white! i don't know if this poop is from the pinky (is it possible he digested the pinky in 1day thanks to the probiotic???). I still don't know if the urates are back to white thanks to the pbiotic, or to increasing size of food, or just cured naturaly. well any ideas?
 
Probiotics can be very helpful but I do not think they would make him digest a pink in a day. Nor do I know if they could "help" out internally that quickly, my thoughts are keep watching carefully, use the probiotics again on one or two more feeds and see how things progress.
 
hmm maybe it was just a coincidence then that he didn't make pink urates during the probiotic feeding.i'll post pics before next feeding they as i don't disturb him much.
 
Definitely sounds like things are going well though. I'd keep up the same regime - slow and steady.
 
Update:
The snake seems more active these days , im seeing him around much better then before. Considering he ate billions of good bactira and he's about nearly 2 years old , this could be the case were he was missing all the good bacteria and now he got them back. Also considering the munson plan at this age and weight he's out the 2pinkies part (if i remember correctly he should be on fuzzies) he's able to digest a pinky in one they so i think thats what he did cause iv been thinking about it and once i saw him roam the viv he convinced me so i second what i said about being a coincidence.

I Just hope my theory is right and there will be no regurgs/pink urates till next feeding they and hopefully for the next weeks. Will Keep Updating of course as usual!! Wish us luck! :)
 
Update:
i have some bad and good news.
the bad news, i found a really small bit of undigested mouse with a bit of urates.
the good news, no more pink urates for the whole week. Also the snake was way active then usual, he was using the UTH more often, and he urates/pooped alot of times during the week.

considering the good vs bad i say the probiotic has made some progress , so im giving i another shot since it was just the first pinky with probiotic and see if everything goes well. this pinky is smaller then the last one also. i took my decision now if the probiotic doesn't help and i find undigested mice/or regurg happens then its a visit to the vet. if the vet can't help or he gives useless information, im stuck in a corner and i don't know what the hack im gonna do blaze. I Just hope the probiotics fics the issue completly with the second dose.

i will re-update every one what happened the next week, until then keep the advices coming !thanks!
 
It sounds like you might be gaining head way there, esp. with Blaze using his UTH more often, sounds like your temps must be more stablized.

Hopefully this will lead to a turn around for him.
 
It does sound like things are going the right way. White urates are good, more active is good. Even if a very small meal is coming out the other end only partially digested, it's still doing some good.

Don't forget that Blaze has had problems for months - probably since before you bought him. It may take months to completely get him on the right path.

Keep up the good work.
 
Last Update:
i want to let everone know that Blaze is dead and its my fault by a mistake made very often by people, a snake escape.
2nights ago i opened the viv cause blaze pooped to let smell out. i forgot it like that and in the morning of course he escaped. i was searching for him till this morning.
When i was taking my dog out for a walk y girlfriend saw him on the street, he was flatened by a car, a very bad picture thats still in my mind.
 
yeah but i think he was just gonna start to cure up. The picture i saw is still in my mind and can't get it away.
 
I'm terribly and sincerely sorry you had to go through that, Seamus, especially since you had finally started to get this corn healthier. I hope the experience doesn't put you off corns, though, they're still very nice snakes and you'll now be damned prepared if something does go wrong.
