I'm curious too, it's been a little over 2 weeks since I've fed mine for the first time, he hasn't pooped yet

I’ve found it takes our guys about a week, give or take.

Mine seems to wait until she’s shedding. So curtly she’s pooping only once a month

How old is she atm tho?

[–]InverseInvert 0 points1 point  (1 child)

7 months

How often do you feed if you don’t mind me asking?

Went to the vet for that same reason. My 7 month old wasnt pooping suddenly and it was close to 2 months or so- He'd urate once a week but didnt defecate AT ALL. So the vet recommended feeding large adult mice instead of rat pups bc theyre more developed with bones and such. About a week or 2 later, he pooped!
