    New ball python question
    Hey everyone I'm picking up a female pastel tomorrow from a local breeder.

    He told me she fed yesterday so is it possible she could regurgitate on the ride home? It's about a 40 minute drive. I don't plan on handling her at all and will let her crawl out of the container into the viv I have set up.

    She's had 5 successful feeds and was hatched on 6/28

    There's a possibility of her regurging. Most usually wait 24 hours before handling after meals.

    I don't understand why the breeder would feed her the day before you were picking her up.

    Yeah I have other snakes and I usually like to wait close to 3 days for babies and hatchlings.

    He had just fed her this morning and I inquired about her tonight but he made it seem like it'd be alright to pick her up tomorrow evening.
