Hi my snake was fed on sunday i think or saturday and he still has not a big buldge but still a little buldge where the rat obviouly is how long should it be till that goes away, or is that just the snake being a snake. also if it is a lil fat like that, should i feed him this sunday?
 
after he has defacated then feed him, if he is only small it wont be long so im sure sunday is fine and also you said on ur other post that he cr@pped on you so then that should be fine.
 
If he hasnt digested the food I would be wondering.
make sure that you have your temps right
 
Yeh heat gets their digestive enzymes going and helps to break down the food.

ok well during the day the temp of the cage is about 28 on average and then its a wee bit hotter closer to the ceramic heater, an then cooler further down the cage, and then i have a probe in his hidy hole where he is and its about 26 on average during the day, should i put the temp up or down? its a murray darling python
