legolas wont do number 2

Can anybody help we have had Legolas for ten weeks now and he is eating fine but in those ten weeks he has only done one poo.He wee's about two to three times a week but no poo , can anyone give me some advise please.

You said he went once, but when was the last time? They really don't go that often. Usually around every two weeks to a month depending on how much they're growing and how much they're eating. Going once in two months is not unusual. You can often speed up the process by soaking them in a lukewarm bath for 20 minutes.

Good luck!

Whenever I command my snakes to do anything, including when to go to the bathroom, they just sit there motionless and stare at me. Its frustrating.

Just kidding...

A common issue of uncertainty among new owners is when and how much they actually defecate. Don't worry, they'll go when they're ready, and usually when you are out of paper towels, having company over, or something like that.

has not been for about six and a half weeks but will try giving him a bath thank you

thanks for your input
