Regurgitating?
So I've been sitting in my snake room for a while and kept hearing a bumping noise coming from Zeus' tub and I looked in and he's keeping his back arched. He keeps thrashing around a bit and it seems that a lump is moving up his body This is the first regurge I've dealt with. I know I'm supposed to wait two weeks to feed him again, but is there anything else I can do? He seems very uncomfortable. He ate on Saturday.
Am I wrong in thinking that this could be a regurgitation? I'm going to have a fecal done as soon as he poops again. Any other suggestions?

Re: Regurgitating?
Nope he's been in a 40qt tub with a hide and a water dish for like six months now. He's been eating consistently for me for about two months now. I guess the prey could have been too big, I didn't weight it. But he has eaten bigger than that in the past. I just feel really bad he looks so uncomfortable.

Re: Regurgitating?
I had this happen to me a couple times. Don't worry too much because as long as your husbandry is spot on, and isn't re-occurring its most likely a fluke. I still to this day have no idea why he did it. I just waited a couple weeks, and offered again and was fine from there on.

I'm still not completely sure that's what's going on. Has anyone here ever witnessed their snake vomiting? It appears that he is, but he's just had his back arched, it started low and has gradually moved its way up his body. I'd assume that it would be a long process, but I've never experienced it so I'm not sure how long it should take. He seems very tired and irritated, but I'll go snap a pic really quick.

He's not laying on any other part of his body here, it's just that he's keeping it arched up like that.
Here he has only the tip of his tail underneath the arched part.
There is a visible bump in front of it but you can't really see it in a picture and I don't want to straighten him out because he's crabby.
