I know there is a million variables, but...

Approximately how long does digestion take, or should take? Assuming all the temps are correct, the size of prey is correct, etc.


I'm asking because my corn was a day late on eating, and weighday is Monday. Normally he eats Friday's, and by Monday I think the prey is pretty much digested. Not sure since he ate Sat. if that will affect his weighing more.

Thanks.

Digestion usually takes around 2-3 days Some faster some slower...but on average. Since yours is still a hatchling I'd say 2-3 days~
