    Question Behaior after feeding

    I fed my little guy two fuzzies yesterday. He hasnt really moved a whole lot since then...like at all. He has been in his warm hide for like a day and a half. Is that normal? Temps and humidity are good throughout. I even covered up all 4 walls so he would feel some privacy while digesting. Just making sure he's ok. Thanks in advance for any replies.

    Your snake is being totally normal!! Digestion takes time and heat and so your snake is in the warm hide (heat) and is not coming out (time)!!

    I always leave my ball pythons alone for two days after feeding them and I leave my boas a lone for three days after feeding them. (Also, the times change when their prey size increases; especially for boas!!!)
