    HELP!

    Kat I wouldn't fret to much
    Do you know how old he is, and can you describe his enclosure?
    I know that they do like to relieve themselves in water alott, does he have a nice sized water dish?
    Thanks

    ball pythons can go up to a month or even more before taking a poo. One of my ball pythons only poops when she sheds. They are weird, but I wouldn't worry yet. And please, tell us more about the enclosure, the size and age of the bp, etc...

    I've had mine for about 2 months and he has only done #2 once, just wish I could only do that once ever other month.

    It's still better than a cat. Cats use the litter box at least once a day for that, and we've regularly had cats stink up the entire house. I've seen them drop a load that smelled so bad, they ran from the litter box without even burying it!

    The more I deal with cats, the more I like my pythons!

    I didnt notice the smell when mine finally went, but I almost accused the cat for doing it in the tank. That sucker was huge!!
