As kittykat has said they may still have some nutrients from the egg but will still be producing urates which come out when they poo, its the green'y/yellowy stuff so even if there isn't much food waste they still have to go.

That's the thing, the poop isn't green like when the first hatched, it's normal poo coloured. |

I agree with Danny so long as they are drinking, the urates will still have to be discharged

Danny we’ve been here before with the spelling and the grammar nonsense, If it is easily understood what is the problem really, so long as its not text speak or in upper case. Just don’t fancy the forum turning into English class for something really trivial. |

DannyBrown91, does spelling really make any odds?
I think we've covered peoples spelling in several previous threads and the general consensus is that so long as it's understandable, then what's the issue?
I've seen (and used) words like 'aint' and 'coz' on here which are not correct spellings or collins defined words, and we also get people using the number 2 and 4 instead of the words.
We're here for fun, not to be grammar pedants.
If you really want us to be, then why don't you check the spelling in your sig??
/edit
Just noticed your post as well Gmac, you must've posted as I was typing this. |

Lol you guys make him seem like a grammar Nazi, I think he was just pointing it out to be helpful that's all :)
Get to try feeding them on Tuesday so just got to hope they will eat and eventually poo because they have eaten.
I have another question. I have one hatchling that seems to poo and have no lump a day after it's eaten. The others seems to poo 2 or 3 days after. He is absorbing the goodness from the mouse alright as surely pooing a day after eating would mean that he isn't or he seems to digest's things very fast. |

The reason I jumped on about the spelling was purely because some time ago we had an issue with someones spelling and they took a lot of offense when it was pointed out to them and occasionally pops up from time to time and I wasn't going to sit and watch, just in case it did turn grotty.
Anyways, the issue of the spellings is hopefully over now (*puts uniform back in cupboard*) so we'll return to the original topic now.

Returning to the original topic (insted of bad grammer and spelin  ).....I cant help you about your hatchling that seems to poo and have no lump a day after it's eaten, but I just wanted to add that Kellog hasnt eaten since 26th March, so nearly a month and didnt poo after that....until a few days ago when my OH was in charge of him. Then he let rip with a massive poo that went all the way up the corner of the sofa side and sofa back, dripped down the side of the sofa cushions.....I couldnt believe it when I saw it and my OH hit the roof  (the fact that he was in charge and that he should have been watching him and that snakes are not house-trained seemed to have slipped his mind  ). But it means he must have retained that for nearly a month before letting it loose....I am hoping this means he might eat next time he is due a feed (checks diary - actually today!) as he is definitely acting less horny.

Ew that sounds lovely Kellog XD yes pooing does often make them feel more hungry I just wish it were the same for the little ones.
I can't believe it though, one hatchling poos nearly everyday. I clean him out this morning as he had pooped and spilt over his water and then half an hour later there was another poo and he spilt his water over again... grr. |

Ah it's only the little ones doing that :) they have plastic drink bottle tops to drink from since they are little but the ones that are eating and growing are a bit heavier now so tip them over and somehow seem to do this most often while pooing. I guess they are trying to poo in their water but tip it over somehow even though it is stuck down.
I found that for my adults that they can't tip over ceramic dog bowls although I do really need to find a bigger one now for Mr.Venom since the one he has right now is too small so he can't soak himself in it. |
