Ever since I fed her 2 weeks ago i was anticipating a little sign that she relieved herself. But she hasn't poo'ed in about 3-4 weeks, im wondering if thats normal? I fed her yesterday and she ate without any hesitation if that makes any difference. I'm thinking about giving her a bath tomorrow, do you think it's necessary or should i just wait for it to come?

After 48 hours give her a lukewarm bath, she'll probably leave you a present.

Yes, the lukewarm bath should do the trick. My Mirage hadn't gone for over 2 weeks and had had 2 feeds and still didn't seem to want to relieve himself. The bath did the trick but oh, he*l, what a stink of a load. Make sure you take out the snake immediately out of the dirty water and drain/sterilize the tub with bleach solution.

Haha i bet she'll be happy when she finally goes.
When all is said and done what should the bleach solution be?

Is this a baby snake? It is real easy to miss the poo with a baby.

If you're going to give it a bath, be very careful not to cook it. Use a thermometer, don't guess. Make the water around 85*. This will feel cool to you.

Do you use aspen bedding?

I found it REALLY hard to find baby snake poos in aspen at first... until I realized he was always going in the same corner!

Good luck, either way...
