Two berm questions please lend me your input 
i have a albino burm male who is just over a year old Ive had him since he was about two months. here lately it seems like he goes to the bathroom almost everyday but its not the white and yellow turds or the big brown turd that he expels every couple of weeks its the yellow liquid i guess its his urine he just started doing it in the last couple of months is it normal for burms to do that because my red tails don’t they only go once a week and usually everything comes out at once. and the second thing was the other day i noticed that one of his eyes has a tiny dent in it and i never noticed that before is it something that will go away or should i worry Ive never seen it before. and the last thing can you over feed a snake because i usually give him two large rats a week but some times if one of my red tails don’t eat there’s i will give it to him and he never turns down a meal and i don’t want to see the rats go to waste and now i think he might be getting a little fat so i try to take him out every day (a couple of days after he eats of course) and let him slither through my living room for some exercise, the only time you can see in between his scales is usually around were the rats are inside him. so please let me know your opinion only if it is positive input to help me, i don’t want a bunch of wise a$$ comments. i will post pics of him soon.

Yes, you can overfeed.... with that said it could and most likely is the reason your getting urination so frequently. he’s full all the time,lol.
As far as the dented eyecap. Many times its from low humidity issues. Not saying your humidity is detrimentally low. But low enough to cause the dented caps. So double check your humidity, and/or start a misting regimen daily.

well now that you say that he is getting ready to shed could that be a reason because i do let him soak in the bath tub every day before i let him slither on the floor so that way he usually craps in the tub. and i usually mist him every day but here lately when i mist him it makes his cage stink that much more because it re-moisturizes his urine. so do you think i should feed him a little less.

At least trim the feeidng down a bit. If he’s getting someone else rat frequently, just feed him a single plus theirs; not the two then another extra.
Daily soaling isn’t bad, but not all that necessary either. Most likely its the frequency/siz eof feedings. BUt the daily soaking can play into it as well.
try soaking once a week or only a couple of times. thenonce he’s used to the different feeidng regimen you should see a more normal schedule to his urination.

i only soak him so that he doesnt crap on my floor when i put him in luke warm water i makes him go and then i dont have to worry about him going on my floor, so you think maybe i should stop soakin him every day?
