How long does it take

I have had gidget now for 2 months. She has shed once and eaten six times and going in to shed again now. She hasn't pooped yet.I don't feel anything that would feel like conpaction. so should i be concerned? I've cleaned up urates a couple a times.

They can go months. If you get up to the 4 month mark, soak her once a while in a warm bath. Mine usually go after they shed. Longest my girl went was 5 months.

Thanks alot. I had fed her my last four breder mice and also two med. rats. She will only eat if I prekill first and just lay it in front of her hide is this normal?

Mine used to do that, but after a while, they turned into very aggressive feeders.

Yeah, I wouldn't worry. My BP hasn't pooped yet but my corn snake is a pooping machine! lol

I know they sometimes agressive but mine is as sweet as candy.Thanks for everything.

What I mean when I say aggressive feeder, is more like "overly-enthusiastic-throw-myself-out-of-the-tub-to-get-that-rat-im-so-hungry-feed-me!!"

They are perfectly calm snakes any other time.

I'm not sure how old she is. she's around 540 grams and 24 inches. Does any one have an idea. I was told 3 1/2 months when I got her 2 months ago.

Mine went 7 months without dropping a deuce and my Vet wasn't the least bit surprised by that. As long as your husbandry is solid your Blood will eventually push a bear out of the cave. It will leave you shaking your head wondering "what in the hell are they up to?" but it's par for the course.
