    Your temps are way too cool! Cool side should be 80 and the warms side 90-94! A bp cannot digest without heat! It is a must! You will get an RI if left without proper heat for a long time! Get a uth with at least a dimmer or even better would be a thermostat!

    Hi,

    I'm actually a bit worried about your description of wrinkles down his body when he's stretched out?

    Do these wrinkles run along the length of the snake or from top to bottom?

    I'm concerned he may be dehydrated.

    Hi,

    It's only been 7 days since he regurged so, even if you get the UTH, you need to hold off on the feeding.

    If you do not give him time to recover he will throw up yet again and be in worse shape as a result.

    Right now I would concentrate in getting him re-hydrated.

    You need a nice tub you can keep him in securely with water about 85f no deeper than half his body depth. Make sure you supervise him while doing this.
