    still no poo!

    I've got a late 08 Borneo that has been with me for 5 months and still no poo. I understand that these guys dont go as often but 5 months for a yearling? And of course I didn't think to ask the breeder when she went last before she was shipped. Her body looks fine, doesn't look impacted, she pees every 10 to14 days either on me or in her cage. Every week she gets a hour soak. Hasn't refused a meal yet and is up to smallish medium rats every Thursday. She appears to be healthy but I'm wondering what else I can do or should I just leave it alone? She'll go when she is ready. I dunno

    I still wouldn't worry too much.....You could perhaps offer a few opportunities for the animal to soak.

    There's a saying in the Blood World that goes.....If you feed it, it will come.....

    Be prepared with a shovel for when it does hit home!

    Oh how he speaks with such truth!

    I don't even pay attention to how long it's been since my animals last pooped.

    They always seem to end up going sooner or later.

    The babies seem to hold it in longer though. My yearlings right now I've had since December 08 and they've only gone once.

    ^ x2. The only thing you have to worry about is whether it will be in the cage or all over you.
