food poining?????

I have a female normal I adopted. Is it possible for a bp to get food poisoning? She ate fine then onday she had really watery stool all over her container and she threw up a meal from 5 days earlier. The watery stool conti ued for three days and has stopped. No change in personality and now she been pounding rats again. Its been two weeks now and she's gaining some wieght again with no signs of being sick.

Just so all information is available. How often are you feeding her?

And what size prey?

92 hot side 82 coolside with a night drop of 5 and humidity at 60%

Night drops are unnecessary. Where did you get the feeder from?

Live or frozen prey? Temps sound fine so it shouldn't be a regurge from that. Did you handle her after you fed her?

I always feed live and always buy from a reptile store near me. I feed on saturdays and don't handle them til monday. Infact I didn't handle her at all before the incident. I have been working with some nippy hatchlings and an aggressive retic lately.

I wouldn't think she would get sick from live. It would be easy to have bad f/t, thawed too long or too many times, not frozen quickly enough after being killed, warmed up too much (cooked), not warmed up enough (still frozen inside), etc. The live animal would have had to been sick or ate something like rat poison, which I guess anything is possible from a pet store.
