So I don't want to further stress him if he's going into shed right away. I also had another surprise coming home from work today, he left urate in his warm hide (which I promptly cleaned - of COURSE he does it JUST after I clean his cage!). My boyfriend has never seen me so happy over something peeing before

So, how long after a feed will snakes continue with urate deposits? There was no fecal matter (my first thought was 'YES, something for the vet!') so I don't know what that means compared to his digestion.

So yeah, just a Hero Update! ^^
Now why would you want him to poo in a dirty cage lol .With my babies sometimes i only see white clumps with no poo at all.Some just poo every where .When i see no poo at all i am happier as that means they absorbed everything in turn they grow .Yea just wait until he sheds for the feeding attempt and let us know how it goes.
