Is my snake acting normally? im confused

OK so I am new to snake ownership and I've been getting mixed info online. Its an unsexed Sinaloan he's active mostly at night, unless he's moving under the substrate where I can't see it. I think its still young. Idk the pet store didn't know much. I would post pics but I still haven't figured it out. I'm technologically impaired. I could email them that's about the basics of my ability. Lmao! I did manage to put my snake as my profile pic. The snake hides a lot except late at night. I've had it 6 days and no pooping has occurred yet. Not that I've dug too far in the substrate, I'm still nervous. Its not my snake really I'm just the researcher. The snake is my daughter's and my husband does the handling. So any help would be appreciated.

Pinkies don't result in much poop. Very little, if any hair on them which is the only part that a snake can't digest. The nocturnal behavior is normal as nearly all snakes are more active at night.

When you can, post pics of the set up as well as Temps. Milk snakes are pretty easy to care for. Nothing sounds wrong so far.

Edit: I see, same image. You just need to post the url in the IMG brackets, otherwise we just see the link.

If you can you'll be my new best friend! I can't figure it out! For being 31 I should be shot for my lack of technical skill!

Set up looks fine, as well as the Temps.

Personally, I would switch to belly heat, since they are not arboreal snakes.

Re: Is my snake acting normally? im confused

I tried it gives me an file error code. I think its my Android or me. Probably me. I seriously quit. I'm copying the IMG code from photo bucket. What agitates me is all these photos are on my fb page. On photo bucket and my phone! I just can't get them here! I hate feeling stupid!
