another poop concern question
ok so i asked this same question like amonth ago but my bp (ive had her like 2 1/2 months) has not pooped since i got her i have feed her like 6 times so far. she about 4 foot and i am feeding her med rats is it possible that im not feeding her enough to make her poop? cause if she is pooping shes real good at hiding the evidence.
Re: another poop concern question
You might try feeding a little more frequently, unless she is the one setting the feeding pace by refusing a weekly meal. A medium rat is plenty big enough and bigger than many choose to feed. I certainly don't think you're feeding her so little that she couldn't poop.
Some of them just store it up and will let it go in one big monster movement. Has she shed for you yet? I'll bet you there may be a shed coming on fairly soon...and when she sheds, she'll leave you a big ol' stinky present wrapped in freshly shed snake skin. :P

This. My ball didn't poop for a good 8 weeks, he shed, and he left piles all over his tank, haha!

My woma ball does this to me all the time. She won't go for weeks, but when she does it is a huge mess. Oh well what do you do, and the nice thing is that I don't have to change the bedding quite as often.
