Poohed and Peed????

Just wondering if this is normal? My big girl hasn't eaten in around a month and a half but today she did a pretty big pee and pooh. Do snakes become constipated?
Would that stop her from eating if it is possible?
Oh yeah up till now she has always been a good eater.

Well, the lack of eating could be the whole spring fever thing. Corns will go on hunger strikes in the spring sometimes.

As far as elimination goes, it seems kinda odd for your snake not to eat for so long and just now be relieving herself. What are the temps in her viv?
 
Well she turned out to be a he...... I guess normal for a male corn...lol
Had she/he probed on Sunday and that explains everything.
And yeah temps are good 82-85 degrees warm side and 73 degrees cool side.

Just glad I didn't buy a big male to breed "Her" with!!!!!!
 
My corn seems to withhold his poops like its golddust or something :shrugs:

He always eliminates eventually though so i've never worried about it.
My corn also puts on weight very fast so maybe the two are connected? Generally slower digestion maybe?
