I gotta Poop question too

Priest Oct 24, 2003 04:52 PM

My Sub-adult leo hasn't gone to the bathroom since I last cleaned her poop up (1 Day, almost 2 days ago). Do leo's sometimes do this? I saw her eat this morning, and there are always crix available (and they seem to be disappearing)... buy ya, just want to know how normal this is. I'll give it a couple more days before I get too worried. Thanks for the help :D

give it a few days before you worry. I have one who eats only superworms & she only goes about 2 times a week.

maybe you do lol, but leos don't, they use a lot more of what they eat than we do, and we produce a lot of waste compared to what we eat, reptiles process much more of their food than we do allowing them to pretty much toss fewer nuggets compared to how much they eat.
at least thats what my mom says, lol

actually, she does go every day. The day aftyer this was posted she went. And I Kid you not, It was at least half her body length. And since then she has gone every day.
