    Mine typically don't hold it. Usually about a week after eating there is a small log. I could only imagine the douce after 7 weeks!

    Waiting 7 weeks for poop is nothing.

    Feed a baby 2 times a week and you end up having poop and pee EVERY SINGLE DAY. Aside from when they go into shed, then by the time they shed they look like a friggin sausage, and the moment they shed there is pee and poo EVERYWHERE. They pee and the entire newspaper/paper towel/whatever is covered in pee from one end to the other.

    I couldn't tell you. I do not pay attention to when mine go. I just clean out their enclosures when they do...

    In normal circumstances (BP eating with consistency) 2 months more or less.

    Since I have had a BP that fasted for 9 months it was 10 months.

    For a BP that was eating with consistency it was 8 weeks... this snake was a consistent pooper. Every 6 weeks.

    For a non-feeder it was close to a year. A rehabbed rescue that ate very sporadically and when he did eat it was tiny little fluffy ASFs that just never seemed to come out the other end.

    Mine fasted for 3 months, so that was the longest he has went without taking a dump.
