Usually my snake goes 3-4 days after eating but then other times she'll save one up for just after I've cleaned!
It usually takes about 2 days to digest so it's still early days if its been 3 days since eating. Nothing to worry about. |

It can vary from snake to snake. I'd guess that most of them tend to go between 2 days to a week after eating.  |

mines both go at different times, Scarpetta eats 2 fuzzies a time and usually takes about 3 days to poop whereas Ozzy took 4 days with his pinkie.
I reckon as long as theres a healthy cycle of eating pooping and shedding regularly it is a very individual thing |

This would be why it takes her a bit longer :). I have a one that loves the cold end and she will go there after feeding and it will take her about a week to poo. If she's at the warm end after a meal, she poos 2/4 days after eating. Warm tummies mean faster digestion. |
