no crap!

Ive had my bp for a month maybe a few days more and havent seen any droppings. I have a water dish that doubles as a hide wich is undernieth it. when i clean the water dish every week its damp uner it where the hide is. i was assuming it was damp because its under the water dish. But im starting to think its the uric acid my bp is passing. do bps usually go in there hides? should i be concerned about it not passing any feces?

How many meals (and what size) has he eaten?

It depends on the individual snake as to how often they defecate. Younger ones tend to go longer because they are using more of the food for growth. Mine average about three weeks, but if they are close to shedding they will sometimes hang on to it and leave a big Poozilla after they finish the shed...

Mine had been off fee for a while and held out until now to let one loose. she averages ones a month. this had been 2 1/2 months after she last ate. no health problems at all.

The first BP I brought home ate perfectly fine, every 5 days, but held onto her poop for nearly one month She's still young and was very underweight when I got her. So, as Vypyrz said, she holds onto her food longer since she requires so much weight gain now (over 50g in the first 4 weeks).

The wetness Under the dish is from tilting the dish one way or another when they get under it. I use the plastic dog dishes and mine hide underneath them as well. I get the same thing. They will go under the hides but you'd notice. It's totally normal to hold poops but if it goes
Into the month stage I usually give a soak In the bath. Water temp 88.f. Dehydration usually leads to constipation. And a good soak may just activate things.

[metalman]

nah the water dish is impossibal to tip even slightly. i will try a bath though. how do you regulate the bath temp? a fishtank heater with something bocking it off from conacting the snake is what i was thinking.

[Homegrownscales]

When the snake goes under the dish it and coils up they actually do tilt the whole dish to one side or the other. Again I have the same exact thing. I'm not talking about tipping the dish from the top. I think you are worrying about spilled water.

A bath should be in your bathtub and you should use warm water and cold water with a thermometer in the tub and adjust the water temperatures until the water is 88.f. Do you have a digital thermometer around? Stick that in the water. I have no idea what you were talking about with the fish heater but that's not going to work.

Personally I think the more you worry about this guy and think somethings going on with him, you could actually create a problem. This is all normal, do the bath but after let him be.

K.I.S= keep it simple!!! Your over thinking!
