    I got my Blood in December and he went twice during his initial 2 weeks and only 3 times since then if I remember correctly. He only gets 1 meal a week, appropriate size.

    Man I don't know what I'd do if my guy dropped a load every week!!! They don't go very often like you said. But when they do its A LOT!!

    No update on the shed yet. :( he's really takin his time. I mentioned before. Is there anything that could cause they're eyes to get hazy besides a shed?

    I never seen it happen for another reason nor heard of one.

    Okay well then he should be shedding. Its just not like the ball. She darkens up real good when in shed.

    This guy just barely lightened up if any.

    Man it sucks not being a very patient person haha. I guess I better work on that.

    My snakes have had me bouncing off the walls more than a few times. Mostly me just worrying if something is wrong.

    he's gettin a little fat towards the tail area I just seen. I wonder if I'm in for a big ol urate or a doo doo soon :)

    He pood and passes urates over a month ago. I'm guessing they pass urates about the same way as they poo? Long time frames between em?
