Bp feeding

[Mwillis81]

Ok I fed my month old bp 10-24-11 and he is supposed to eat again today but he hasn't pooped the f/t fuzzy from Monday. Can I feed him today or should I wait until he poops the 10-24-11 meal out? Thanks

Don't wait for them to poop, feed as you normally would. Mine hold it until their shed most of the time. Mouse or rat fuzzies?

Snakes aren't like mammals, they don't poop every time they eat. If he is due to eat again go ahead and feed him,

Thanks for the replies I will feed him this evening. I feed him mouse fuzzies he's about 99grams the snake is

I would feed him a hopper or small mouse. Fuzzies are a little small for a 99g snake.

Generally you want to aim for about as wide as they are or 10-15% of their body weight.

My ball python is about the same size as yours and she ate 3 fuzzies before she pooped (I have her on small adult mice/large hoppers now)
