they can go a few weeks with out going, its like a watched pot if your waiting for the to poop they never will. mine seem to like to poop right after i clean the tubs.

oh okay well hopefully some other people will post so i can get a better idea

usually every two weeks or so. if they dont go for a while they will probably go right after they shed

There is no set schedule it depends on the food intake, whether they are growing and utilizing most of the prey item for their growth or not, etc.

It can vary from once a week to once a month or more.

As long as you are feeding your BP appropriately, and your BP is healthy and well hydrated he will go eventually.

okay thanks alot

Amen. Best way I know to get a snake to poop is to clean its cage. ;)

well i clean her cage every 2 weeks. i replace all the bedding and wash her hides and steralize the glass

Varies. Mine has gone anywhere from 5 days to 3 weeks.
