Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
Been a couple weeks on pinky rats. She will #3 tonight in a bit.
However, I am a bit concerned over her back end. Looking kind of big/inflated and not finding any poop for a couple weeks. She has moved to her cool side at 80 degrees. Still lively when I take her out and when I put her back in and she doesn't realize who I am seconds later, feinting in her S shape. Nothing new there.
Do you guys see anything? I'm fine if that just looks like poop, but I just want to make sure it is not fat.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
Looks ok. Maybe take her outside into the grass and some sunshine. Usually takes about 7 to 10 minutes and she'll poop if she needs too.
Cheers,
D

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
Looks like poop to me, a soak could possibly help as well.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
Thanks for the tips.
It is getting a bit cold up here. And the neighbors don't know about the noodle yet. I'd like to keep it that way.
She also ate Sunday and I generally leave her until Wednesday night or Thursday before messing with her. She changes hides when digested it seems, though not always.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
I agree, it looks like a poop filled sausage butt to me. A warm water soak in the tin could definitely help move things along and add some extra hydration.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
Her mid section doesn't appear to have slimmed to the norm yet so I will look at giving her a soak tomorrow and buy a suitable container today.
She has water 24/7 and always drinks right after being handled. I guess partly me stirring her up causing her to look around.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
I've noticed that my pair of thayeri kings always have that same sausage butt, seems like they poop much less often than they eat.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
Didn't even get the chance to soak her. Found poop and urate yesterday morning when checking in.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
Another item I wanted to bring to you guys, she has become a bit cage defensive.
However, this is only after handling her and stirring her up, I suppose.
Today I took her out to get her moving and check her out and when I put her back I made sure she was facing my direction.
Still, with full knowledge of me in front of her, she got defensive when I slowly reached for the water bowl to clean and refill. When I came back I was still slow then. Yet she felt it was necessary to get in an S shape and start "bouncing" towards me.
Am I expecting too much from her, aren't I?
Also, her cage is 8 inches off the floor; is my height the cause for scaring her?

Was this a typo? 
My understanding is that as they get bigger they have less to freak out about. I am hoping this is the case.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
As babies they have more natural predators so by nature they are more defensive and flighty.

Re: Cuddles the Woma Python
Yeah, I have heard that and is pretty much the basis for my thought.
But still, something has to imprint on her eventually that I am not a predator.
