Hi guys, can anyone tell me how often a 4month old stimmie should poo? It hasn't done one for little over two weeks now and i took it outside on the grass today to try and stimulate it to do one. Also at the tip of its tail its white should i also be worried about this?

They crap when they want to crap. They can hold it in for weeks. As long as your temps are okay then i wouldn't worry about your snake not going to the toilet and i wouldn't worry about white on the end of the tail. Everything is fine.

The poo depends on how often you feed and if your setup is running ok?

Was the white tip there since hatching or purchase. It could just be part of it's markings.

The less they crap, the less work for you. Don't stress untill it's been more than a month or so unless his/her tummy is getting inflamed.

Perhaps it is going to shed and it is holding its crap and the white tip on its tail is the skin starting to go dull.

sorry, i dont have a camera at my disposal but the white tip is not large its about 4mm from the tip and is more like a dull white. it sorta looks like his tail right at the tip is dead.
