BP Pooping....When?

[Shayne]

Also he’s gonna do it at the most inconvenient time in the most inconvenient place making the biggest mess possible

LOL! Kinda what I was expecting. When we were at the expo. a couple weeks ago, one of them pooped on my daughter. She was gagging. lol

Young snakes are eating smaller, younger prey that is mostly digestible. As snakes grow & eat larger prey, that prey has larger bones, more fur/feathers, and possibly
some indigestible stuff in their own gut (like seeds, etc) that ends up making more "roughage" & thus more stool.

So a baby snake eating pinkie mice may take a while to make very much stool...see? You tend to see more urates than stool at first. You'd be surprised at how
often we are asked here if someone's young snake is constipated.

Sound advice. Thanks.

Mine is 6 months old and eating lg. adult mice now, so his poop should start packing a bit more "punch", shall we say?

In my experience, he’s gonna poop when you decide to handle him or take him out and set him down on your furniture!

Lmao! Yep, kinda what I'm getting ready for. Good thing we love those slithering lil' suckers.
