I have also read a couple of posts where shedding was difficult because of having just eaten so it may be related to that as well but I would follow the advice you get here. My new bp regurged and I waited 14 days to feed her again, then 10, then 7 and now she is doing great. I would get the husbandry right because it is also possible to develop an RI with improper conditions and that will just another layer of unpleasantness for you and your pet. Good luck.
