I had the sam problem once. I raised the temperture to about 89-90 degress, and took out the water bowl. I uderstand the water bowl decision is debatable but I leave it out of the cage for about three days, leave it in for one. With the high temperatures and low hummidity, hopefully that will help. I also waited about 2 weeks before offering a very small item to eat. Make sure it is fully thawed and dry as well. Hope it helps. Also watch out for any sheds or poops in the cage that can raise the hummidity as well.

: Hello, I am wondering if anybody knows why this is happening. I had 2 other silvers die with the same symptoms. The vet did a necropsy (autopsy) and found nothing wrong. My snake looks very healthy, but is regurgitating about 4 days after eating. It is a year old, and is still being fed pinkies. HELP!!!!! Thanks, Megan
