No pooping?

cshoff Mar 22, 2005 05:41 AM

Hello all,
I've had my baby blood for about 2 weeks now. 4 mice have been consumed, 0 defecations have occurred. I had a Borneo from 1999-2001 (an adopted boa brought in IBD, and I lost my Borneo and my Haitian boa - no more adopted boas) and I remember that one going about every 4-6 months...
Is this typical or anything to worry about?

Thanks
Chris

Sometimes a fairly large deficate can build up and its hard for them to get it out. So just check every once in awhile to make sure, and consult a vet if necessary. Its fairly normal for bloods to deficate like once every two months or so, sometiems longer.
