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.

It is not normal for any snake (unless perhaps we're speaking of egg eaters who regurge the shell of an egg) to regurgitate a meal.
Was their anything that could have stressed the animal into regurging (handling, cohabitation, other pets harassing the animal)?
What "medicine" did you give it?

Let me see......it could be because you have them all piled in one tank together and they are stressed...or they can't all get to a proper hot spot to digest, since their only heat source is a single bulb in one corner of the tank.

Ah-hah!
Well, that certainly answers my question about a possible stress related regurge.
Here is the link to the FAQ that you may want to read over:

And a little section that I wanted to specifically point out:
Quote:
It is not recommended to house more then one cornsnake in the same enclosure. The problems that arise from co-habitating include cannibalism, transmission of disease and stress. It is better to avoid a problem then create them.

The frequency of feeding could very well be your problem. Although corns have a relatively high metabolic rate, feeding an adult corn two meals only a few days apart is physically stressing. The snake had not even fully digested it's meal from Saturday when it was fed again on Tuesday.
You also indicated that you medicated the snake to deparisitize it a week ago. In addition to killing the baddies, the beneficial gut flora of the snake is also going to drop off. One week is not enough time for them to have replenished themselves.
In short, you overfed it when it was physically incapable of digesting frequent meals. Let it go a week to a week and a half without a meal, and then give it something small.
