normal behavior??

I know this is a dumb question BUUUTTT its better to ask than not to ask Right? Well I am wondering what is normal behavior for a BP after eating a larger meal than she was used too?? What do ya'lls BP do after eating a small adult rat(F/T)??all she has been doing is sitting curled up in her new cave normally she was out and about the next day now she only gets active that I can tell is when I get her out of her cage(fed on 11/01/2003) kinda feels "pudgy"or is that her just feeling full???feedback would be great she is my first snake and I love her to death and already made some stupid mistakes and don't want to make more.

Shes just full, bigger meal means longer digestion time.

Just leave her be for a couple extra days and everthing should be fine.

Sounds normal to me.

If she was normally out & about the day after a meal...that probably meant that she was still hungry. Make sure that the temp in her cave is high enough for good digestion.

Also, (as you probably know) don't handle her for two days after a meal. It is best for them to be left alone while they digest a meal.

I wait until my girl comes out of her hide before I try to take her out. This way she decides when she's ready to deal with me again
