In the event of a regurg wait at least 14 days before feeding again.

J.P.
once prey is in, it usually stays in....as long as the snake is not startled/disturbed.
it only takes a day or two for an oversized meal to partialy breakdown and be soft enough to "spread out" evenly....

Re: Rat too big!!
Just wanted to leave an update y'all and thank you for the info
It is the 4th day from the feeding and everything appears to be good! Thankfully no regurgitation. Possibly a bit of sausage butt going on. Which should be interesting because last month she didn't poop till shed. Hoping she goes before shipping. Don't really want to find out that she :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r: herself during the flight.
Thinking I should hold off on feeding her till after shipping. Not leaving for another week. Although that means from last feed it will be about 3 weeks before next meal.

She'll be fine going 3 weeks with no food.

We all made mistakes in this hobby before. When I hatched out my first balls I was feeding them large mice because I didn't know, their lump would be huge.

She should be fine, especially with the big meal she just ate. If she still has sausage-butt the day before she's shipped, try a warm bath - that usually gets mine to go!

Re: Rat too big!!
Poop success. Now just need to worry about shipping.
