Hey guys,
Thank you for all of the advice. Just so you know, the gopher was originally being kept around 80 degrees and I advised her to bump it up since I'm a corn owner and that's what I would do if my corns weren't holding food down... So it was only mid-high eighties in there for a day or two.
Unfortunately, the snake passed two nights ago. The day that she passed, she got a clean bill of health from the vet. The regurging hadn't been going on long enough for her to have starved, so I think it could either be:
1) You shouldn't de-worm snakes that are that small and haven't kept down three meals straight (my friend told me that the vet did this and it made me uneasy)...
or
2) There was something internal going on.
Either way, I guess she's in a better place now, but we'll all miss her. Thank you again for all of your advice. ----- -Jaime Palma
