Question Royal Poo..or lack of.

My CF08 Royal Python has been with me for two weeks tomorrow. She is a tad on the skinny side so i've fed her three times, last night was her last feed. She is a Dyson of the snake world and spanks her food within seconds.

My question is...........She hasn't poo'd yet. Is this normal? Should i be worried?

I wouldn't worry I've got 3 royals (although only had one about a week), the other 2 don't poo that often at all, in fact my youngest is about 3 months and had him 5 weeks, he's not at all yet.

When I got my 2 year old, it went about two weeks after I got him, feeds every week on small a rat, then took just over a month to go again, now he has gone about every 10 days for the last two times.

Still not curled one out. All i've had are two tiny orange and white deposits.

I put her in a luke warm bath today for about 10 mins in the hope she'd go, but no. Everything else about her is spot on; Great feeder, soppy as anything etc

I'll keep a weather eye on her

That was a fair few feeds to say you'd only had her 2 weeks.

My royal has a dump when he feels like it which is pretty rare. Just wish my dogs were like him.
