    STill no POOP! :(

    Okay so I have been asking on forums for months now, why has my snake not pooped? In like 2 or 3 month.. SO I went and give her a 25min bath tonight, and NOTHING..

    She still URates fine, but no poop..

    Should I be worried yet?

    What's the weight and size of both snake and prey?

    I've heard of it taking a while sometimes, but I would probably call the vet about 2 or 3 months. That's just seems weird that she still urates regularly..

    Anywho, good luck! I never thought I would wish for poo for someone, but here ya go. lol.

    haha! Thanks

    She generally poops when she sheds, but she shed last week with no result :/

    I really have never wished for poop myself, but I do hope she poops lol!

    my local vet is about an hour or two away, I'll give them a call, but they probably wont give me advise unless I visit.. And even so, the advise they give me probably wont be as good as advise from you guys, professionals..

    Im hoping shes just getting all the goodness from the mice, when I got her last year she had not eaten for like 3 months and was 50 grams or so, now shes about 400 grams and has never refused a meal for me..

    Re: STill no POOP! :(

    Well that's good that you haven't had any feeding problems; they can be so frustrating. But it doesn't seem healthy for her to keep taking more in and not gettin any out, haha. My snake has been refusing to eat lately, actually. It's been about a month now, but I've never had problems with her before. So I'm getting worried. She does have scale rot right now, and I'm hoping that she's just stressed out from that and doesn't have some internal problem. I've offered her a mice today and yesterday, and she watches it intently and follows its movements around the cage, but never eats it; she confuses me.

    Uhh sorry, didn't mean to write a book!
