    Issue?

    My boa, who normally goes to the bathroom weekly hasn't eliminated yet. It's been over a week and lately I've been giving her soaks, but nothing.
    Otherwise she is healthy and normal. Her viv is normal, nothing out of the usual

    She is well hydrated too.
    The last prey item I gave was a smaller than normal medium rat

    Just give her some time and she will leave you a nice stinky present soon. They don't poop on a schedule, they go whenever they want or they may even hold it until they shed. Lol whatever they want to do so don't worry, she will poop eventually.

    Is it possible she absorbed everything she ate?
    Still no presents.

    That may be the case, how old is your boa and how often/what size meals are you feeding her? She may just be at an age where she is using everything to grow so nothing is being eliminated as waste.

    She's a 6' 4yr old. I gave her a smaller than normal rat. She is on medium/large rats every 2 weeks

    Well you've got her on a good feeding schedule and the size sounds good, I think she is just saving it up and will poop eventually. I still wouldn't worry too much about it. Going a while without pooping won't hurt her or compromise her health in any way. But please keep me updated. I know she will go when she gets good and ready lol.

    It's weird that I'm the only one that has commented so far. I can't believe the boa experts haven't chimed in yet,
