She ate a small pinkie on Monday, Jan 19.
And ate again on Thursday, Jan 22. She still has a big lump
(the last feeding she ate 2 pinkies) in her.

Still no poo. Is something wrong with her? Is she constipated?

Thanks

I'd say she is totally fine. Do you have a hot side of around 84-86 or so? If so, she is most likely fine.

If you are *That* worried, try a bath. She will go to the bathroom almost for sure. But they don't always go a lot when eating pinkies.

Those feedings are awefully close together. You should give it time to digest the first meal before feeding the second. You should at least give it 5 days between meals, preferably more.

Yeah I 100% agree with that as well! I didn't even clue in to that for some reason the first read around LOL

Ok, I'll wait for 5-7 days between then next time.
Thanks so much.

If she is small enough to still be eating pinkies, I would feed every 5 days until she is about a yearling, and then decrease to once a week.

She has hot side that stays anywhere between 80-85. Drops to mid 70s sometimes. But she sits in the hide on the cool side 90% of the time.
