Hey quicks just a couple quckies

Firstly Eddie was fed at the breeders the day before i got him ,,he hasnt pooped yet is this normal?
Hes due a feed thursday im a lil anxious about it in case he doesnt eat though the breeder assured me hes a good feeder/pooper/shedder
Hes eating fuzzies atm i was advised to feed him one every 5 days is this ok?
also how will i know when hes ready for bigger foods or is it just a case of try him and see ?

Thanks guys

Could mine was within about 36-48hrs of its feed so you may have missed it suppose each snakes toilet habits vary. I would have missed mine if i didnt add some empty loo rolls into its viv and moved the fake plants a little, found it under one of the leaf's

hes on kitchen roll thanks for the info re feeding hmm maybe i missed the poop could he have done it within 24 hours of feeding ? maybe it was in the tub at the breeders place i will closely inspect his rub later when i take him out again replace all the kitchen roll etc thanks simmy

He'll be ready for bigger food when the fuzzies dont leave a bump when eating.

As for pooping, are you using substrate?? I currently use kitchen roll (until i get used to what their poop looks like). My snake is about 8 weeks old, and i found some of its poop last night, was the smallest amount, i was expecting a bigger poop, so if you are using substrate you may well be missing it.

I'd just try feeding him again and see what happens.
