Constipation?

LadyOhh Oct 17, 2005 01:23 AM

How do you solve the constipation problem other than soaking in warm water?

How long also is the longest time it has taken for one of your snakes to defecate?

I would not worry about constipation in an otherwise healthy animal. So long as they have heat, adequate fresh water, humidity, etc., they will poop when they have to - even if it is two or three weeks. If you are really concerned, I'd say stop feeding until your animal poops, and remember, they often poop when they shed so you may have a wait.
