My pack man is large on his sides (overfed) should i feed him till he poops. Thanks for the help.

No, don't feed him when he's overfed. He will poop on his own when given time, you usually can tell when they do because they actually seem slimmer lol.

just because he looks big doesn't mean that he is overfed. they usually absorb water and hold in air. try to keep track of when he poops. this will help you determine if it has been too long. if it has been too long the best thing to do is put him in a small container of warm water just shallow enough so when he hunkers down his nostrils are above water. leave him there until the water cools and replace it or put him back in his main enclosure and try again tomorrow. good luck.
