how long until the poop

i fed my corn 2 days ago and i was wondering how long until he poos cause ive heard if i dont clean it it can make the corn snake sick
 
With my two corns, they usually poop 1-3 days after their meal, and sometimes the day before i feed them again.

They will poo between 1 and 3 times at most after each meal.

Bear in mind my corns are yearlings, so this information is suited to snakes of their age and size. I am not sure if the pooping reigime is the same for adults or hatchlings :p

To be honest. I never sat their and counted the days until a bowel movement. You could say I don't give a crap. I just clean the as I see them. I also go through the aspen once a week or so.
But I would think it vary with the snake and food size. :shrugs:
 
Mine usually goes 48 hours after eating and usually once before I feed him again. I am feeding every 5 days. As far as your snake getting sick, the poo usually forms bacteria and could possibly lead to an illness. It's nice just to get it out as soon as possible.
