    Kevin just shed a couple days ago. He hadn't crapped for a couple weeks before, then he shed, and the next day he left an enormous pile in one of his hides.

    Bowel movement will be related to a few things feeding frequency and prey size, as well as the animal (younger animal will use most of the prey for growth)

    If you feed enough you should expect a bowel movement after every shed, if the animal is not fed enough it will be using the entire prey for growth and sustain itself leaving little to nothing to be eliminated.

    As long as there is no persistent bulge near the vent there is nothing to worry about regarding possible blockage.

    As for urination it comes in two forms, white chalky substance called urate which is a by product of urine and liquid urine.
