BP Pooping....When?

[Shayne]

When it needs to!

There is no schedule, they are very efficient, it depends on the animal itself, pretty size, feeding frequency etc can be anywhere from once a week to 4 to 8 weeks.

Constipation is rare and something that you will notice if it happens as there will be a persistent bulge near the cloaca.

Ahh ok, makes sense. Thanks for the explanation!

also, hatchlings tend to hold on to their waste a lot longer than older beeps. i think i've read it's a survival thing: pooping means giving off your scent and being prone to predators finding you, so they tend to hold it in for a while.

Hmm didn't realize that. Understandably why they would do that tho. Thanks!

Unfortunately BP's do not have access to Taco Bell so it can be a while.....

Lmao! Life would be so much easier if they did have Taco Bell. A system flush would occur like clock-work. I know I had to install a seat belt on my toilet for that very reason.

When I found one of my little guys looking like this gave him a warm soak and he let er' rip.
