Lump still noticeable after feeding

Last feeding was Feb 24. It was a fuzzy that was too big. 10 days after feeding, Ty still has a noticeable lump like he is still digesting. And I haven't noticed any poop in his viv.

Should I be worried?
I plan on skipping his scheduled feeding this Sunday and wait until next Sunday.
 
I definitely would skip the feeding. Are his temps okay? I'd be concerned. I've fed my snakes some pretty big meals once in a while, and the lump still was gone within 2-3 days.
 
Temps are good. Warm side gage directly on the glass reads 85 F. There is about 2 inches of aspen on top of glass. Ambient air temp hovers around 65 at night and 70 to 75 during day.
 
Temps sound okay, lower night temps than I prefer, but by no means bad when the warm side stays consistent. I guess that was just a really huge meal.. I'd definitely skip feeding a until that lump goes away.
