    My girl still has yet to empty

    So im sure its nothing huge to worry about but my girl hasnt emptied herself in 2-4 weeks... Shes about to shed so im hoping she will soon. Im not sure if i should worry, or if theres anything i can even do.

    I wouldn't worry too much, I have snakes that rarely seem to go. If she looks swollen or seems impacted, soaking her in warm water can sometimes trigger them to go.

    Thanks just needed to ease my mind a little. I had heard 10 days is a long time for a snake.

    They usually hold it until after they shed. It's a survival instinct, why leave a scent in two places and take away a potential food situation when you can leave it all in one place.
