My girl hasn't regurged - YET. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that when I get home she is going to have somehow completely digested her food and not look swollen anymore. With my luck though... we'll see. I plan to try feeding her fuzzies from now on until she is better acclimated to her new surroundings. And she is scheduled to see the vet next week.

>>That's funny. I have an 05 female albino that does the same thing. I fed her Saturday and saw the lump on Monday just like you. I haven't had her TOO long. I gave her a rat pup a few weeks ago and then let her digest for over three days, but she regurged the mostly digested pup the day after I fed her. It was hard for the vet and I to even tell that it WAS regurge, but we both decided that it was in the end. She's tested negative for parasites a few times now (never tested positive). I'm not sure what it is either. I gave her a dose of metronidazole to calm her stomach and then gave her 2 weeks before I fed her again. Now, I just feed her small things and have been giving lots of time inbetween meals. Also, I don't really handle her. Not sure what's going on. The guys that sold her to me had her eating rat pups once a week.
