My 5 year old jungle Python has recently come out of her hibernation period & happily devoured 2 large frozen/defrosted/warmed up rats within 3 days. 3 or 4 days later she done 2 regular sized poos, 2 days later her eyes went milky, ok so she's going to shed, her eyes stayed milky for at least 5-6 days & have now cleared up, so now patiently waiting for a old skin to be in her enclosure, I understand that they don't poo during the shedding stage, I'm just worried that it's been at least 2 weeks since she devoured the first rat that she hasn't fully dispelled of them. Is it because she's in the shedding process that she's digesting slower than usual? Sorry if the question is dumb, I'm just worried!
 
Doesn't seem like anything is wrong. They often defecate with shedding.
 
Being the first feed after brumation (it's not quite hibernation), your python might not poop until it eats again.
