How Often Do CornSnakes Poop?

Well the title says it all. I never know when they poop. Is it like 2-3 days after feeding or what? I hate handling my snake then finding out its just pooped in my hand. I know sometimes there is a bulge when it needs to poop but my snake always seems to have a bulge down near its tail.
 
It varies with the snake, hatchling or yearling.
The food size, pinky or an adult mouse.
The amount of time it's feed, once a week, every five days.
But around two to five days after it feed.
 
well i feed mine on monday and on thursday i take him out for a min then put him back... and within 10 mins i hear a fart and he has pooped then i know i can take him out

It's not advised to stress your snakes out by overhandling them.

Why, you could scare the crap out of them. :sidestep:

lol jazz. . . . nice. very nice.


btw watching aristocrats for the 1ooth time. . . absoloutely a convert to whatever religion Gilbert is gonna found in his later years.
 
Yeah, among the 80+ comics in the film - Robin Williams, Drew Carey, Kevin Pollak (his Christopher Walken impersonation KILLS), shoot, EVERYONE - Gilbert was the one who shone through.

His religion? The Church of AFLAC. ;)

i'd say about 2-4 days they poop. i'd also suggest they day they poop give her/him another one (if u want you're snake to grow fast :rolleyes: )

I'd say any more than every 5 days is too much..
 
I have no idea of the girth. Well is 2 mice a week too little? I was told that was fine..... but still some of you seem to say you feed your snake every 5 days.
 
It's funny, this thread went from one end to the other.

It's hard to say if two mice are too little or not because I don't know the widest point of the snake (girth).
The general rule for, What size to feed my snake?, is feed no more than 1 1/2 time snakes widest point.
So what the girth, lenght, and age of your snake?
So picture would help too.
