Hiya,

I got my first corn last weekend, she fed Sunday night with no problem, and I fed her again tonight, which she took with no problems.

But I have checked her faun, through all the substrate and I can't find that she has been to the toilet at all yet, either kind.

Is this normal? How often should she go?

Thanks for reading
:-)

If you have a substate such as aubiose or beech chippings ect its very easy to miss a hatchlings poop because its so small. the most likely place for a poop to be is in the corners all around the out side.

corns, kings, milks, blood pythons, royal pythons, bredles pythons, rosey boas, hoggies.
forgot how many years ago

You may just have to have a root around for it. When my snakes were little I could never smell their poo's and to be honest unless its really fresh or its been done on their heat mat I still can't lol.
