They go when they are ready to, there is no set schedule, it can be a few days or a few weeks.
Everything depends on the animal itself (hatchlings utilise most of their prey for growth), prey size, feeding frequency.
So long there is no huge bulge near the cloaca your BP is ok.

Thanks for the fast reply i really appriciate your help!!
Another question:
Why is my ball python not moving too much?
he stays in te same place almost all day
i dont know if he is digesting because i feed him on sunday
Or maybe because doesnt have the right temperature i have him on its hot side 84f and the cool side is like 3-4 degrees less
right now i only have heat lamp as the source of heat but i bought a heat mat which im not ysing right now because im waiting on the t-stat it should get here in 2-3 days
sorry for all question as you can see im much more than a begginer:/

Re: Question About my Ball Python
My advice, take him out for while and letbhim move around in your hands, it will get things moving. Be ready to put him back or have some papertowels ready.

Re: Question About my Ball Python
I only wait 1 day and never a problem. Dont listen to people who say 2 days.

If your hot side is only 83-84 then he may be digesting more slowly than normal. I'd just leave him alone until the t-stat arrives and you get his belly heat set up.
