Steve,



Unfortunately this is a common condition of Surinam/B.C.C.



It is mainly due to temps that are to cool,The food item to large,or to frequent feedings.



I have personally battled this syndrom several times.



With extreme PATIENCE I have been able to succeed.



I would wait 2/3 weeks before trying to feed her again.



I would raise the ambient temps 2 degrees from what you already have.So the cool end shoould be 83'- 85'.



I would place more hide boxes in the enclosure.For security.



I would feed a very small pinky mouse.Not rat,For some reason mice are easier to digest.



I would try again 3 weeks latter.



After successfully feeding small pinky mice 3 times in a row without incident.I would move up to fuzzies 3 times in a row.



She should be back to normal by then.



Remember the key here is EXTREME PATIENCE. Good Luck
