    Baby Ball Python

    My Ball Python that we got last March is eating and growing nicely. I am worried that he has not defecated in some time but still eats. We have a infrared nocternal light that stays on 24/7 and a regular spot for 10hrs. The temp stays between 75 to 95 degrees. I put a pice of slate in the 30 gal tank and have a water dish which he likes to hang out in.
    Is there anything I can do to help him go??

    Just make sure the heat and humidity are correct - you snake will 'go' on it's own.

    If he hangs out in his water bowl then you either aren't providing adequate hides or he has mites. Either of those need to be addressed.
