Yeah, I agree. It sounds like what would only amount to one medium sized mouse divided x 2 no less would have been digested with no problem with a big six footer.

Personally I think I would do two more of the same doses of Flagyl that you gave it before and not consider feeding at all for at least a good 12 days after the last dose. Then just ONE tiny offering insted of two for several feedings thereafter for a while just to make EXTRA sure they are kept down and the snakes stomach gets used to processing again normally in "baby step" fashion.
