    Re: Regurge from baby BP, Now what?

    For Bean I meant 1 week of no food after regurge, Bcr229 recommended 3 weeks of not trying to feed, and I
    meant that it has been 1 week of no attempted feeding. (Her regurge was last week) and yes the regurged half digested mouse smells horrible!!

    Bitey seems to be good, she is a lot bigger than Bean, I hope she doesn't have any issues, I dropped her feeding size a little I'm feeding her just under the 10% of her body weight, and slightly smaller than her body size. She's at about 100g weight
    Sorry, I ran those comments together...I know Bean is in a 'holding pattern' & has 2 weeks to go...I meant that the regurge she had when you
    fed her might not have been her first, that's why she looked on the slim side when you got her. I hope she "turns around" for you.

    Here's hoping that Bitey doesn't give you any problems...nothing worse than the smell of regurge in the air. Good idea to feed on the small side
    for now, in an abundance of caution.

    This is what I meant in previous post:

    Be patient, she [Bitey] could still regurge even after a week, but the longer she keeps it down, the less likely that will happen. Your nose should tell you if she regurges... Hoping that at least Bitey will be problem-free.
