    a little regurge...?

    Mast night, I heard some weird noises coming from Bela's cage; seems she had regurged, but only a little bit.. it looked like brown fluid (not red or bloody) smelled and looked like loose almost watery fecal matter, but it definately came from her mouth; saw her opening and closing her mouth and it was right under her. It was a very small amount though, not a whole meal or anything, maybe a teaspoonful.
    This morning everything seems fine in there. I had fed her 2 nights ago; is this anything to be concerned with?

    Does not sound like a regurge at all. I would start with a trip to the vet and having a fecal done if you're concerned that there is a problem.

    Re: a little regurge...?

    From your description it really does not sound like a regurg.....did you actually see it coming out of your snakes mouth or just the head position and location of 'fluid' make you draw the conclusion?

    Here is a regurg picture as an example. However, these kinda things can come at different stages of digestion so there may be 'different' looking regurges.
