    How often should she be peeing?
    I've noticed lately that she's been peeing once every five or so days. This is a change in her normal frequency. It's normally once every two weeks. How often should she be peeing? How often does yours pee?

    Re: How often should she be peeing?
    My Pythons pee frequently , Once sometimes even more times per week and there's usually a lot of it. The idea that she is peeing frequently seems to me like a good sign with many factors that you could (but seem unnecessary to worry to much about). Temperature low may increase enclosure activity and increase bowel movements. High temps could lead to more water consumption and bowl soaking. As long as you're watching all the key factors of BP care and everything else is going well I would just keep a record of all activity and put your mind at ease.

    Has your BP been eating more? BP's get most of the water they need from eating rodents (we mammals are mostly water by weight after all) an increase in rodent consumption equals an increase in water consumption which would equal more urination.

    All in all I wouldn't be too worried about this increase in urination.

    She hasn't been eating more and her temperatures are stable. It seems she just chose to pee five days apart for three bladder emptyings. She seems to be back to her regular schedule.
