I have read that when snake feces smell worse than usual it usually indicates a parasitic infection and that is happening to my snakes' feces. Is this true and should I take my snakes to a vet?

Is it happening consistently?

Then perhaps a visit to the vet is in order. Are the feces normal in appearance?

sometimes the white urates are made of mall, hard, crystal like translucent-yellow balls, sometimes texture like rocks. But the snakes have not been acting strange and are accepting all meals.

I've read though that some parasites can be present in snakes for years and only show signs a long time after the infection started, is this the case with my snakes.
