I was wondering how often young Colombian's should be defecating? I feed mine every 5 days or so if that helps. Thanks in advance.

you're probably feeding it too much... it would be fine on a 7-10 day schedule and would then defecate every 4-6 days or so... if fed the appropriate sized items.

If fed something tiny every 5 days it may not defecate as regularly.

Thanks.

I wanted to give him some smaller prey items just to start him off. I initially fed him 2 rather small pinky's and he was still looking/acting hungry so I fed him a fuzzy about 5 days later. I will however, start feeding him on a 7 day schedule. Thanks again.
