I have had our python for about 4 days now. They told me he had eaten on Friday. This is our first experience with snakes. I am wondering why I haven't seen any poop is his cage?

I don't know the science behind it being as I'm only a kid and not that bright of one, but I figure that since they don't eat as often, they don't poop as often as other pets. Also their digestion is slower (i believe) due to them being cold blooded.
Hope this helps.

Sometimes they can go a whole month or more without cleaning the dirt box... Don't worry about it. Follow the advice already given to you and just let your snake be alone for a few more days. Then you can start to worry about things like, "when should I feed" and "when will it poo" and "why did it try to bite me."
"why did it try to bite me?"
Now...now...
i got mine about 2 months ago, and only two weeks ago (after having three meals), he pooped ... so its normal, don't worry !
