Poo... Quesion

It's been 2 weeks today since my 5 half month old female did the #2. Tryed giving her a bath tonight but nothing. She eats in a feeding tank so no worries about substrate.....is this to long of a wait for a poo?

Two weeks is nothing.

Each Ball Python has its own personality and defecating habits.
The go when they please :)
Don't worry, your ball python will do the #2 ... It won't explode, I promise :)

Here read a bit down this thread -

Ha Ha...Thanks Blink, I guess I shouldn't worry.

Just be lucky it doesn't let one rip on you.....Roo poopied on my roomate once. I was in the doghouse for a few weeks after that. :-/

HA!, that really stinks Eh? lol, with all my luck the warm bath might have loosened her up and first thing in the morning I'll be cleaning up.

yeah its a nice mess when they go on you, especially if they do #1 AND #2. that's what i got last time i handled nellie when she was looking fat in the tail. :shock:

Knock on wood it hasn't happened yet to me, but she is looking fat in the tail.

I personally like when their tails get bulky! :D
Yeah the poo doesn't smell to good.
The longer your BP holds it in the bigger the poop nugget you get.
My last poop nuggest was around 3 inches long.
Keep in mind my snake is around 18 inches long.

tee hee, you canadian!!!! you said Eh!!!!!!!! :) my snake pooped for the first time in about a month and a half a few days ago. i figure its because she started shedding... maybe she got stressed about it and scared the sh*t outta herself. literally.
