HOw often do snakes poo

MY snake hasn't defecated since i got it last Tuesday, at least thats what i think, and i have recycled paper bedding so i think i would see it if it were dark colored. Anyway the snake is eating and digesting fine does it mean anything if it hasn't deficated yet or do you think i probably overlooked it??
 
i would say my yearlings probably poo 1-2 times a week, strangley they both poo in there feeding tubs which isnt pretty i must say, whereas my 2 hatchlings probably poo once a week, perhaps longer so if yours is a hatchling i wouldnt worry just yet.
 
i was worrying about this too, when i first got mine.

the general consensus is that the snake will go 2-4 days after eating, i think.

If the snake is small (feeding on one pink), you might have just missed the poo- theyre TINY. even on two pinks, the poo is not that big.

don't stress too much- if you aren't feeding it in the cage and it hasn't swallowed any bedding, and it's eating well, its unlikely that theres any problem.
 
Alright thanks my snake is a hacthling so i guess either i missed it or he should soon. Also what kind of snake is that in the picture knives its looks beautiful

I have one that's 22 grams that I have to search for the poop because it's so small, probably just using most of the peach fuzzy as nutrition. I have 2 others, little bigger with different matabolisms that poop faithfully 1-2 days after eating. And trust me, no searching is necessary.:awcrap:
