Hey everyone, I need to ask how long does it take for a baby ball python to poo, just a bit worried as hes had a mouse last week on wedsday and feed him yesteraday two and he still hasnt pooed at all just thinking I had him on aspen for a few days dont know if he has impaction or not?
this may sound stupid but rather be safe than sorry.

bah, Stig hasn't been since October ish, saying that he hasn't eaten since then either......


Don't worry until it's over 2 months (if the snake is eating regularly)

My adult royal has a poo about every 6 weeks when she's eating, and my baby boa's not much different.

Maybe this should be a sticky, it seems to get asked a lot.

that most be good luck. lol it can be anything from a week to several weeks so don't panic. snakes digest almost everything from the mouse apart from the fur so there is not a lot to poo out after each feed.

The white stuff isnt poo, its a solid ball of Urate, basically all the chemicals of pee but without the excess water.
