Uh oh! Feed questions

Ok, so a little background.

DEC 16.. Successful feed
DEC 19.. Poop
DEC 20.. Urate
DEC 21.. First successful shed for me, all off in one piece [emoji16]
DEC 22.. successful feed

So, i found more urates and liquid pee today, not in his hide. No big deal, he is on paper towels so I spot cleaned and planned to change all the towels 2 days post feed to lessen the chances of regurgitation. But, I noticed he wouldn't use his warm hide,which I found was weird considering he took a meal.

So, after never having seen him in his warm hide at all today, I investigate further and see a poop. [emoji35] of course I should've checked after he shed. Now I hope I didn't screw up too bad, by not allowing him to properly thermoregulate during digestion? :(

I briefly held him and just did a complete clean of his bin. He is back in his warm hide now.

Mine doesn't always stay in her hot hide right after feeding. I actually just fed her a few hours ago and she has been in the "cool" hide since then. It's typical for her. Not worried in the least.

It will be fine.

I wouldn't worry too much about moving your snake after it has ate, sometimes I have needed to clean etc.. and had to move him after he has ate or even days after and never had a problem.

Wouldn't worry mine goes in cool side hide after eating.. They do as they please.. Mines been camping in his warm hide for a while now and he went out exploring and found his cool hide so that's were he was when I left as long as your temps are all good they decide where they want to be
