 Digesting Prey

Hi all, I fed my RTB a Sub Adult Mouse 4 days ago, and I still havent noticed any "remains" (poo) so I was wondering how long it takes them to digest a meal etc. because in 3 days (friday) its up for the weekly feed and Im a bit nervous if I shouldnt feed him before he out the other one.

Thanks for great posts so far.

Skunkman.. don’t stress over it.. there is no set time frame when a snake has to use the bathroom.. they go when they need to... I have snakes that go every time they eat...(once a week) and I have snakes that only go once a month. If I were you, I would continue to offer food item on schedule...if anyone else has anything further, they’ll jump in.
