34 days

Its been 34 days now since my 3 month, 3 and a half foot burm has defecated, he releases urates once a week but yet to #2. Is this normal? He eats 1 small rat every 3-4 days (rather than 2 rats once a week). He has had 11 meals since the last time he went but he is out of his cage for at least an hour a day moving around which could burn off energy. I know it may sound like a dumb question but my boa went more often than this and everything I read gives different information. One article will say they should defecate after each meal and others say they only go every few weeks. The temp is 90 on one side and 80 on the other and I soak him in warm water once a week too to aid in digestion.

What do you think please leave me some advice or your opinion.

Greatly Appreciated
