Wait a full week before trying to feed her again. Some say 9 or 10 days is even better. Your snake's digestive system needs to recover first, and if it is not given time to do so, you could wind up with a deadly regurge cycle. Don't handle her for the whole week. Leave her alone in peace and quiet as much as you can. Then...give her a smaller meal than she has been getting. Give her another full week of R & R and repeat. Check your temps to see if she is getting enough warmth to properly digest her meals. Take it slow. Don't try to rush her, even if you think she "looks hungry". Good luck. Duffy

:I have a young corn, may 5 or 6 monthes and she is eating peach fuzzies (smaller than a fuzzie, bigger than a pinkie)

:i gave her two last sunday and the bulge stayed in her stomach for a couple of days. On friday she barfed up a little pices of mouse, maybe 1/2 inch to 3/4 of an inch long, I looked like mouse skin with a little bit of fur on when end and none on the other end.

:What could cause her to barf just a little bit of mouse? I dont know if its related but she shed only partially on thursday and barfed on friday.

:Any suggestions on what i should do?
