When are they considered empty????

Ok so i just weigh my Bps and got their wieghts and was wondering when are the considered empty? I asked this because most of the time when they go poop they ate just a few days before so they are not totally empty correct???? or is that when they are considered empty??? I want to get a proper weight for them for breeding reasons. Do i need to not feed them for awhile til they poop to get a real weight??????

I think most people consider "empty" to be right after they drop a deuce. If you're feeding on a weekly schedule, they're never really empty...

I'll only write "empty weight" on the chart when they defecate at the end of the feeding cycle or when I know they haven't eaten in a week or more and then they defecate. I also do my weigh-ins before I feed which helps get a more accurate weight even if it's not an "empty" weight.

I only weigh mines after shed and poop, IMO that's what I consider empty weight since I do not offer food when they're in shed.

I weigh them after a poop usually but sometimes it hard to find them i have a few that burry it in the plantation soil. i have a snake in every 100g range from 100-700 its funny watching them all gain wieght differently.
