the images are not appearing for me. but they are there let me know if they are messed.

Jeff, is your boa a bci or bcc? Do you feed FT, live, PK?? From the last pic (what i can see of her) she looks like a standard colombian boa...The reason I ask is, over the years of keeping BCI or BCC's, Ive never had a BCI regurge on me before, but Ive had instances where 2 BCI's (suri's) regurged on me a few times, for they really need size appropriate meals. Your temps look fine in the pic, perhaps some belly heat might help? Also, if your feeding FT is the prey completely thawed out before feeding? (im not trying to imply that you are clueless) LOL...Im just throwing out some advice...I would advise that you dont handle her at all during this time either....leave her be...

She is a BCI from what i know, and her appearance. she also does have belly heat @ 94*F but she rarely hits the ground.

Im assuming this is all caused by a flora issue in her gut as the fuzzies were appropriately sized to the best of my knowledge. But im going to get the feeding train chugging again on something smaller like a pinky first. and cross my fingers. PS: i feed live. I feel its more natural for my snakes.

Sunday is the big day

im so happy right now :) i decided to feed my boa last night as she was loosing her mind trying to get out of the cage. good news is she ate it.... didnt soak afterwords and kept it down :D 12 days after the regurge she seems to be doing better! i got up this morning. and no regurge. but she did leave her hide and go back to her vine by the CHE :P


woohoo!!

:banana: :banana: :banana: :gj:

Got my fingers crossed man, good luck.

Thank you all for the help. you guys and or gals really saved my baby. she has already went much longer then before with out regurging.

regurge has got to be the WORST friggin smell in the world....Nothing like coming home from a hard day at work, and BAM it hits you! 8)

ia gree. u know it when it happens

Just an update:

she is doing great. its a complete turnaround from before.

again THANK YOU to all the kind encouragement and tips. you saved my day, week w/e you want to say but you did it.

Probably the last update unless this reoccurs.

she is doing well kept her meal down. she has been soaking the last 2 days on and off. i know she is miteless and and her temps are good not to hot or cols. som im asuming she feels like she may shed soon. (her belly is getting pink anyhow)
