    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

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?cPath=1199_1200&products_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.
 
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.
