    Should I be concerned???
    Hi Everyone, It has been 15 days since my Female Ball has pooped - should I be worried??? I've seen her go two weeks between poops but this is getting a bit long (15 days) - any suggestions!

    Thanks.

    She'll poop. The older they get the longer they go without poo-ing. It'll be fine

    Thank you for the answer - I was just worried but I will trust you all and just wait it out. Little bugger - worries some times.

    I feed her once a week. Its not that I want her to poop more - I was just concerned that she was constipated or something - LOL

    We too... not familiar with his/her schedule yet :)

    We fed twice (after a two week hold - new BP) and no poop, we got excited when he/she did a little poop and urate two weeks ago. Mainly because my 6 year old promised to clean up poop (my wife and I are done with poop) if he could adopt the snake.

    He/she now how two small adult mice in, and no poop since the last little one. Feeding today, will make it three and I am expecting something soon after... :O

    As always, make sure temps and environment are squared away (preaching to the choir I am sure).

    Yea...no worries. Check your temps and humidity as that has a lot to do with their digestive system.

    I wouldn't be too worried. Just be patient. God, that's so hard to do.

    Temps and humidity are both good - so I guess she will go when she feels like it - LOL

    Thanks everyone for your input.
