    I would go ahead and try f/t. After two weeks he should be good and hungry. Also, if you feed them wet that helps to hydrate your snake, and the Nutribac sticks to it very well.

    I would go ahead and get the Nutribac, it's one of those things that's good to have on-hand if you keep herps, same as F10 and Vetericyn.

    You have been a bit harsh. Keep in mind we were all new. I know it is repeating knowledge. Be kind. ;)

    Should I not handle him at all during the time of inspecting he eats and not regurgitating for few feedings? so about 1~2 months of no handling?

    I would not handle at all. You need to not feed for two weeks so I would not handle at all. Let him be stress free. I know it is hard but you have 25+ years with your baby. A few weeks to a month is nothing. Let's get the baby healthy ok.

    Actually the only time i have ever used a probiotic was for my beardie when i had to syringe feed her baby food mixed with probiotic while she was on baytril as that stuff is pretty harsh. But then again, i have never had a snake regurg on me.

    But also if i need it, i live fairly close to Bean Farm so i could just run there and pick it up. Also my vet stocks it so i could swing by there and pick up a little container of it lol.

    yea, that is not a problem :) just wanted to make sure. I have reptile prime bedding coming in tomorrow, not sure if I should change the substrate tomorrow or later since it could be a stress?? idk haha.

    Can't find much info but I will probably contact some stores if they have it or not before ordering.

    I haven't read all of the posts, but has anyone recommended Nutribac to the OP yet? I recently had a snake with regurgitation issues and I treated his water with Nutribac for about a month and a half to help him replenish gut flora from regurgitating. Also, make sure there aren't any cold drafts blowing on his enclosure from anywhere...

    Im not being harsh at all. Ive spent hours/days PMing this young man and hours explaining what to do step by step. From the time when he was buying the snake until he set his first tub up/how to heat/first feeding/Husbandry 101.
    People will ask 100 common sense questions they could have read about themselves then after everyone takes their time to help they question the importance of what you've explained! Then they dont follow the directions and post another thread about the problems they're having because they didn't follow anyone's advice. Thats insanity.
