Sounds normal to me. If you had left it to dry then you would have seen more white.

Lovely when they do it on the carpet isn't it...

White bits aren't poo. Lol its urates, basically like our urine but as snakes take so much nutrients through everything that passes through their system, (built to survive in the wild in food/water shortages)

And the brown/black stinky stuff is poo.
Always entertaining when he decides to take apoopon my trackies.
