Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Regurg issue in Imerial pueblan
I recently bought an Imperial pueblan milksnake (75% pueblan milksnake and 25% cal kingsnake)and I am looking for some advice. I fed a few days after I received him to give him a little time to settle. He took the small pinkie just fine. I didn't see him for five or six days as I was out of town. When I got back home I noticed he regurged a half digested pinkie mouse. I thought that this may be due to the stress of travel. So I waited a week and offered him another smaller pinkie which he readily took. I visually checked up on him for the next few days and on the fourth day I found another half digested regurg. I have one side of his cage set at around 85 F with a thermostat and heat pad and the other side stays around 70-68 F. The humidity on the cool side is about 40% and he always has a bowl of clean water. I am using aspen bedding and he has three hides spread out throughout the tank. Should I be concerned and do you have any advice for me?

Wait a week to feed again and in the meantime order some NutriBAC - http://beanfarm.com/product_info.php...oducts_id=5933 - it's a reptile probiotic. I've used it to help with regurges in a rescue boa. I don't put it in the water, I just dust a pinch on a f/t feeder.
Typically you have to offer a half-sized feeder after a regurge. I guess you could try to find the smallest possible pinky.

Thanks I ordered some nutribac, but not from the place you suggested. Their shipping is outrageous.

Just an update. I tried to get the nutribac but apparently all the online outlets don't have it in stock. Anyway I upped his temps and fed him a small pinkie last Wednesday. He was able to keep it down and has been out hunting his cage since Friday. I will feed him again today and see how he does. Thanks again for your advice.
