Ok i have had my snake for about 3 weeks now.
The first time i fed him he pooed and peed on me 5 days after. This time after his feeding the same thing started happening, however as soon as i felt liquid i quickly put him in his cage, however his movements didnt progress. It has been a week and a day since his feed and im starting to get worried. I havnt fed him again cause the last rat has not come out yet!
Please help. Oh my snake is a centralian python, 8 months old.

Give it a few more days, he'll go when he's ready.

I wouldnt worry abuot the no poo bit until it appears as though they are in discomfort.
You could try taking him out and putting him on the grass or something., Obviously stay with him the entire time, like directly with him, and you may find that when he stretches out he will poop then
Dont worry, i am sure it is all fine. pretty much normal behaviour

IF your really woreried after 2-3 more days i'd soak the snake in a bucket with lid in about an Inch and a halfs worth of warm water.. dont worry pythons are natural born swimmers.. leave it in there for about 30 mins or so then put it back in its tank and hopefully it will defecate... Although i'd make sure the snake isnt coming up to a shed as mine constantly hold their defecations till they finish sheding.
