I havbe never had to deal with this so please excuse the newbie questions. :)
I came hime today to the most horrendous smell coming from the snake room. A large female ball python regurged in her tub (did I mention it really smells bad?).
She has never been sick and nothing about her environment has changed.
The only thing that is different than the norm was that I fed her a feeder from a different source than where I usually get them last night.
Could the feeder have been bad and caused this?
How long after the regurge should I let her settle and not feed or handle?
Do I need to adjust the temps (up or down) because of this?
Would transporting her pose a problem if I bring her to the vet tomorrow?
Any specific things I should look for as far as how she acts, etc?
I changed out the bedding in the tub. Should i replace it with cypress like I usually use or should I put in newspaper?
That's about all the questions I have for now and any other suggestions on what to do would be really appreciated.
Thanks.
