If all is well aside form just a regurgitation then you need to wait 2 weeks minimum, feed one smaller prey, wait two weeks again, feed normal size and use a product like nutribac to restore normal gut flow.
Vet and I decided to watch him little more than do check up if it happens again. Do they sell that nutribac product in reptile store? Or is it prescription?

If that is what it is, then wait a couple weeks and feed smaller prey until the snake is used to the size.
Happens more in BCC than is BPs but i would assume the same can be applied.
Agree, the meal looks mostly digested.

I personally wouldnt worry. Just wait a couple week, make sure your husbandry is good like temps, humidity, security etc and try again but with a smaller size which you should do anyways with any regurg.
Now if the snake pukes up a second small meal, then i would have it checked out.

As April said, don't feed for two weeks. Offer a half-sized meal dusted with Nutribac.
If all goes well wait two weeks and offer a half-sized meal again that has been dusted with Nutribac.
If all goes well wait one week and offer a half-sized meal that has been dusted with Nutribac.
If all goes well wait one week and offer a normal-sized meal. Keep the snake on a 7-10 day schedule from now on.
If the snake regurges again during this process, call the vet.

Would you say nutribac is essential and necessary?

Re: Just Regurged..
Hi,
Did you remove his hide for the video?
Had you handled him or otherwise disturbed him just before he regurged?
I may be off the mark but the fact you were videoing him before the regurge started hints at possible stressors as a direct cause.

Oh yes, Like I mentioned, his tub is right next to my desk so I could see him when he roams around. I heard some weird sound and he had his mouth opened. so I opened the tub and removed the hide to see his whole body. I didn’t video him before the regurge, but started after I realized something was wrong.

Re: Just Regurged..
should I keep him on live food? since that was what he was eating? I was actually trying to switch him to f/t this week, but he refused one. Should I go back to live until I am sure he is healthy?
