my snake took a pinkie mouse on sunday, it has now been 2 days, so it should be ready to lay a bog any time soon i think.
roughly.. how big is the poop i should be looking for? and will i be able to smell it?
i dont care if it stinks, if it stunk i would give my snake a hi 5 (if it had arms) but i just wanna know easy ways of identifying whether its done its business without having to poke aorund in its enclosure |

With cat litter substrate its easy to get lazy and only do spot cleaning, which isn't very hygeinic. |
