Ok,ok, so I have one basin... so what? lol Anyway, this girl is a nice size 2 yr old that I've been feeding a rat pup every few weeks. Never had any problems with her except that she won't poop. Right now, she's been fed 4 times without pooping & looks like her butt is about to explode. If I soak her, she'll go within a few hours... this is what I've done the past few times. I've been waiting to see how long it would take if I don't soak... any ideas what could be going on? Is this normal? Could she be dehydrated? I mist every other day or so & she has a big water bowl, but unlike my other tree snakes of superior intelligence, I never see her drinking from her coils or the bowl. What's up???
