Re: When Should I worry
I agree with the others... probably nothing to worry about yet, and he could take an adult mouse by now. Do you know his current weight? My youngest BPs were also born in July, and have been eating adult mice (sometimes two) for the last few meals - with NO problem getting them down. And most of my snakes, big or small, generally don't poop more than once every 4-6 weeks. Here are the records for two of my babies, to give you something for comparison...
