I'd be giving her larger prey. 400g snake and I'd give her 40 gram rats until she gets to small rat size.

Re: STill no POOP! :(
I can get larger mice, but I can't get a supply of rats :/ the only local shop is like 1 hour away =/ I'll look into 40gram mice though :) There should be a feeding chart on this site, is there?

Should I be worried yet?
Was she really active in the bath? You may want to either make the water deeper in the bath (so she swims more) or increase the length of time in the bath (1 hour or a little longer).
I haven't had a problem with constipation in my BPs, but when I've needed to help with bad sheds, I've found the more and longer they move their bodies, their bowels follow suit.
Another thought might be that she's dehydrated and having trouble.
What type of substrate do you have in her viv? Do you feed her in their or another container? Is it possible she could have ingested any substrate?
