    How often are you feeding him? Is the stool developed and 'normal'-looking, or is it soft/watery/runny?

    Do you have a picture? Might be worth bagging and bringing to the vet to get tested for parasites.

    Usually they only poop every 1-4 weeks. Are you sure you arent seeing urates? they are chalky solid version of pee.

    I don't know if BPs are different than other snakes when it comes to defecating... but my corn snake will poop once or twice after a feeding, depending on the week. Sometimes it's one large a few days after eating, and sometimes she'll go once then again right before feeding day.
    :S

    Sorry I can't be of more help.
