    How to tell if impaction?

    Hi guys. It’s me again and experiencing another first here with my boa. I got her beginning of November, so far have fed her 3 times since she’s been here and she has not pooped once. I’ve cleaned out the tank and haven’t seen anything that even looks like urates. I’ve been keeping an eye on her bottom so see if it’s swollen and I can’t really see anything major, mayyyybe a tiny bit bulgy but you can barely see it. I tried soaking her in some warm water about a week ago to see if that would get things moving but still nothing. She’s about a year old dwarf boa (Sonoran) and I’ve been feeding her about every 10 days a 20 gram rat pup (she’s around 200 gram)
    any thoughts on if it could be impaction? And what would be other tell signs that it is?
