Belated Butt Bombs?

[Vanthios]

My BP Archimedes is a new addition to my family. I first got him the Sunday before last, and fed him the same day. I don't have a scale, nor do I know the size descriptions of mice, but the mouse I fed him was a little smaller than his largest point. I just went into Petco and asked for feeder mice. I fed him again last Thursday, then went out of town. I did not feed him last Sunday. I've yet to see or smell a single poop, which makes me concerned. I'm not really sure how often he's supposed to be pooping. Could it be the mice I've given him?

Thanks for any help.

No need to worry.

Keep in mind that they have a very slow metabolism.

When he goes he goes.


Add: my adults go once every 5-7 weeks on average.

Agreed. I have one that only goes right after a shed...on the shed much to the disappointment of the kids.

Sometimes it takes them a while to poop. He'll probably have an extra big dump to make up for it.
