    I am a little concerned with how much she is pooping though. She’s probably pooped 7 times in the two weeks I’ve had her. They all look normal, but I’ve read that hatchlings usually use up most of the pinky and poop pretty infrequently so I don’t know if the amount of waste she’s producing is typical.
    Probably normal...colubrids have a faster metabolism than do some other snakes (like BPs). In this regard, they're the total opposite of blood pythons, for example.
    If snake-poo was money, they'd be big spenders, not savers...
