180 g snake wants to eat 30 g???

[Albert Clark]

Why would feeding (2) appropriately sized rat pups cause a healthy animal to regurge? That's roughly 18% of the animal's body weight which really isn't that large of a meal. I feed multiple prey items to all my snakes pretty regularly and have never had any issues.

THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^. The main reasons for a animal to regurge are illness and or improper temperatures. Usually sub POTZ ( preferred optimal temperature zone) or above the POTZ, too high of a temperature. Although these are captive animals who depend on us to optimize their environments with the correct husbandry and feeding regimen, in the wild they take what they can overpower without size and or weight consideration. However their enviornment in the wild is already stabilized.
