Charlie hasn't pooed in 6 days , and I fed him his mouse 6 days ago, I thought this was normal and fed him another yesterday coz the shop said to feed every 5, but I'm worried if he is constipated or something , and what's normal ? His tank is 32 on one side and 25 on the other if this helps :) |

32 is rather warm. How are you heating at the moment? Do you have a thermostat? Where is youre thermometer positioned? Is it a glass or plastic tank that your snake is in? If so could you cover the side that gets the worst of the sun with some newspaper or cardboard to stop the sun heating it so much, although the best solution would be to move the tank so that it gets limited or no direct sun.
In regards to the pooping, he just might not be ready yet. He is probably saving up a nice big one for you. Wait until he has had his digesting time and then have a nice handling session. let him run through your hands and the contact and movement should get him going if he is ready. Is he due for a shed. Some of mine hold their poops when they are due to shed and do it at the same time. |

That's how he used to be - the temperature fluctuates between 28-32 coz my room has a big window in it and it makes heating awkward :p like a magnifying glass |

Danny i think 32 is a bit high try getting it down to between 28-30 as for pooping i think its quite nromal for some snakes to take a week or more though eddie seems to be regular as clockwork eat then 2 days later poop lol |
