    Ball python making puking noises??
    My ball python started making noises like she was about to regurgitate but nothing came up. Temps and humidity are as they should be. She ate last Tuesday. Afterwards she seemed fine but what could have caused that??

    What kind of puking noises? Sometimes I'll notice bp's insides will make some gurgly noises during handling, like gas moving around or something.

    Possibly a burp from the air injested from eating. How long was this after eating?

    It was more like a cough, but I know snakes can't actually do that. I handled her a little while later and didn't notice anything strange.

    Not sure about puking, but some snakes with RI "retch," I suppose you could say. You mentioned it sounded like a cough, so that just points to some sort of respiratory problem IMO. Good luck with your snake!

    Can confirm the RI thing. I have a little girl fighting one right now and she will gape and "gag" on the mucus. Wish there was something I could do to make it go away faster :(
