....chicks stink....you found that out...they do not have as much body weight or tissue as rodents...more water....and probably was a frozen chick...so it does go right through them....and smells....this pile has urates in it ,so I'd say it is feces not regurged ......as the other person said...warm them for a week or two to empty them out...then drop them back to 56 to 66 degrees.....too warm and they burn too many calories...too cold and they die....(I got to 40 one year and lost 3 snakes (of like 60?)...underground is around 55 degrees so.....Hondurans I had were always kept at the lower levels...a little cooler than some stuff....but do get it up into upper 70's for a week or two...

good luck....
