Snake not pooping!

I've had Clio for two feedings now and she's yet to poop. I've searched her tank thoroughly and can't find any! Because of her colour I can see what's in side of her and there's nothing there! What's going on??
 
Is she pretty young? With Lava, who I could see through also, I didn't notice poop for awhile, but would see the pinkie move down and disappear. I don't know but I think it is because she was absorbing so much of the pinkie. When I finally found poop, it was very minimal.
 
Yes she is very young...only a few months old. I too can see the pinkie move down her and dissapear!! Think I should be feeding her more then?
 
Sometimes new hatchlings from breeders, and especially pet stores, eat a few pinkies when they come new to you before they really have a good crap. At pet stores and some breeders they maintance feed. Its not always underfeeding, just maintanence feeding. So when your new hatchling age snake comes to you and gets on a new feeding schedual, much of those extra pinkies go to growth right away.

It should poop soon. If not after next meal, then try a bath. I wouldn't be too worried until she hasn't crapped for two more meals or so though myself.

Thanks. Cause she's new I guess I was worrying too much. As long as she stays acting healthy I'll just leave the poopin' up to her...lol
