hello i have a friend who has a snake for about a month or so and it has not gone to the bathroom yet any reason why? any help would be great thanks ~AJ~

that's like saying my car stopped working, would you know why?
lol
actually, what I mean is that there are many factors that could contribute to this.

some that I can think of initially are:

maybe he hasn't been fed much,
maybe he does not have the proper temps to digest,
maybe he is blocked up.

simplest solution is to soak the snake in room temperature water for a bit. remember they are cold blooded so what feels like room temperature to us would be warm to them.

this usually does the trick.

if not, go in deeper, explain your setup, check the heat, let us know what you feed him, how often, and what the setup is like..

best wishes.. Joe
