    How often to clean?
    I'm just curious as to how often I should be cleaning my bp's encloure? And by that I mean, removing everything, cleaning the glass and replacing the substrate.

    Thanks!

    I just had my mojave that thought it would fun to rub poo all over the water dish and side of the tub and all in the substrate.. YUM! nothing says loving like smeared poop stains on the walls.

    :eek: ICK!!!

    Okay, so I'm guessing that if I haven't seen it, that means it probably hasn't happened yet??

    But how can a snake go for 3 weeks without pooping? Is this normal?

    I've had him for 3 weeks and he's been fed 3 times.

    Perfectly normal ... their bodies don't work the same way as other animals like mammals and fish ... it'll happen.
