I only keep corns, at the moment, and the lump after feeding is normally gone within 24 hours, so I was wondering. How long does it take for the lump to go after an adult boa or python has eaten?

My Royal you'd not notice the bump after 48 hours though you do notice them getting fatter and fatter after every meal as they hold onto their poop. My Boa is a baby and again about 48 hours and its gone.
GP, its interesting to know that when they are bigger they take longer to digest bigger meals, I never really thought about it before.
