    There are a lot of factors that go into digestion such as quantity of food, growth rate of the snake, frequency of feeding, etc. It could take anywhere from a week to several months.

    Wanna make your snake go potty faster? Clean their cage; they seem to love poopying in freshly cleaned cages*.

    Re: how long does it take?

    I would think the temps would effect it the most!
    My Corn snkae is about 4-5days and the BP is like 2 weeks.
    It does depend!
    Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.

    Why is it called 'after dark' when it really is 'after light'?
