I've got a question
My 1200+ female cinnamon is eating well and really putting the weight on which brings me to my question she only poo's once a month when she sheds and it is HUGE. Why would she only go once a month? She does drop urates like 3x a week though. Oh and she is an 08 if that matters.
Thanks for reading and hopefully some input

Re: I've got a question
Mine does it once a month or so on average as well, I believe that's the norm after a shed. I'm pretty sure it's from all the moving around and twisting that causes the BM.

Re: I've got a question
Actually I seem to remember something about if they poop too quickly it could be a sign that they are not digesting properly or their might be something wrong, but that may have been only if it's runny or excessively wet. If they go once a month or so, I believe, their digestive tract is operating effiently by absorbing the most nutrients from each meal.
