Burm possible regurgiation
Okay so I have a burm that is roughly 2.5 ft long (just got him a few months ago) anyway he normally eats two rat pups well this week when i went to get his food I realized we had tiny pups and I didn't want to bump the size of his prey so I gave him four which weight wise added up to the size of his normal meal. he took all of them like it was nothing. I had removed his cage decorations for cleaning and what not and didn't want to mess with him yesterday because I had fed him Saturday night. When my Fiance took him out so I could replace his decorations he struck at him (which isn't normal, he normally hisses and acts tough but never does anything) when he did he missed and this clear liquid came out. I'm assuming it was a regurgitation in sense. I was wondering if I should skip his feeding this Saturday (I've heard if they ever regurgitate their stomachs need time to balance out is how it was explained to me) or if he should be fine by then. Like I said it was just a clear liquid.
Thanks for the help in advance :)
Re: Burm possible regurgiation
I would think if he was fed saturday and its monday now he is probably in the clear when it comes to regurge risk, esp if they were small meals.
It could be just water. He might have just recently drank and was startled by your fiance, hissing & striking may have forced some of the water back out his mouth.An actual regurge would look more disgusting than a clear liquid.I'd say He's fine.

I went to check on him this morning and he is fine, I'm battling RI with my boa at the moment and my burm is showing no signs of RI so I guess it was just water because it wasn't slimy or anything. Just me being paranoid. thanks guys I appreciate it
