I have been reading many posts in regards to feeding a ball python. There seem to be many different views as to how often and how much. Is there a way to tell with my BP's behavior? I have had mine 2 weeks now and he ate his first meal last friday. He has pooped already. Should I just feel him again on Friday? Make it a normal feeding day? I have not purchased a scale yet to weight him yet but I measured him at around 22" today.

Also I use the aspen shavings for his bedding. Seems great and all but is there an easy way to tell when he pees on it? The color seems to be the same. It kinda clumps but I noticed it doesn't take much to break the clump apart. I am worried about leaving pee soaked bedding in too long. Will he be ok with just regular changing of the bedding?
