Regurge

I've had them eat butt first, too. No issues.

Bad temps (too cold usually), stressing while digesting (including handling some of them), parasites/other internal issues, not properly defrosted FT rodents.

Those seem to be the more common reasons I've heard for regurges and vomiting.

It's been stated on the internet and will now rear it's head over and over and over and over and over and over until it becomes a Truth.

You heard it here first.

Snakes vomit.

Snake regurge.

There is a difference. I have a fat cookie for whoever explains the difference.

What kind of cookie?

Regurgitation is the expulsion of non-digested food (esophageal contents and "fresh" stomach contents)

Vomitting is the expulsion of the entire stomach contents and the upper part of the intestines (in mammals anyway), usually including partly digested food.



Do I get a cookie??

can I have a cookie too? For knowing AND for being sexy?

chewy oatmeal please!

Now can the rest of you explain why everyone uses the two terms interchangeably?

Is a regurge as traumatic an event as vomiting?

its used interchangebly because to most people it looks the same. something coming out of the animal's mouth rather than in.

Regurge is caused usually by external factors whereas vomiting is usually caused by internal factors. That being said, vomiting is more traumatic due to the causes and due to the force and contractions involved in expulsion.

Now can I have my cookie?

The cookie will go straight to your hips.

It'll balance out my busty rack!

Will the cookie make me vomit or regurge, Skipward?
