    Regurgitated food?
    I just found the weirdest thing in the corner of my BPs hide, I don't know what it is but it might be regurgitation from her meal last night?

    If it is, that's my own fault-- I feed her in a separate container and then put her back in her enclosure afterwards. She's never had a problem with me doing so before, but I shouldn't assume she wouldn't eventually. Is this regurgitated food or something else?

    If it is, I definitely recommend just feeding her in her enclosure, just to be safe. I always feed Calliope in her enclosure and I've never had any sort of problems caused by that

    How long ago did you feed and what was the smell like?

    Usually regurgitation looks like the rodent partially digested, this looks like fur and small amount of fecal matter hence my question about the smell.

    kind of looks like poop, i think i even see a urate in the back there. you'd know if it was a regurge because it would literally smells like death and vaguely resemble a feeder.

    just feed in the enclosure from now on. there is no benefit to you or the snake when feeding in a separate enclosure.

    If it was a regurgitation from last night it would look much more like a mouse/rat. It would basically look like a slimy, partially dissolved prey item and smell like death.

    Would she have digested all those mice (four pinkies) already? There were definite furry looking pieces and some places I thought I saw rodent parts

    The urate was in another part of the enclosure

    You are feeding pinkie to a BP? Pinkies don't have fur so it's even more confusing.

    Again what did it smell like?

    Didn't smell like anything really. It was smushy, greyish brown and had hair, and looked like the amount of the four pinkies from last night
