First...let him rest for a good week after a regurge. His system is weak and needs to recover. No food...just fresh, clean water. What kind of setup do you have? Are you trying to handle him within a day or two after feeding? Right now, he needs total rest from you and feeding for a week at least following his last regurge. Don't try to feed him sooner. Then give him the smallest pink you have, and leave him alone for another week. Let us know how it goes, and good luck. Duffy


:Whats happening to my texas rat? Most of the food i feed him is regurgled after a day or two. Its about a feet long and ive been feeding him pinkies but it sure doesn't seem to help...any suggestions?
