Hey Krystal,



As always, tempos and humidity need to be verified to be correct.



Once past that you need to nurse this one back to normal feeding. With a second regurge several days after feeding I suspect the prey item was somewhat digested? And that would mean two possible problems, Damage to the esophagus from stomache acid and Loss if intestinal flora (the microbes that aid in digestion)



Both of those problems are addressed the same way.....



1) WAIT to feed again, at least two weeks, better three or even four. The delay will allow repair to the esophagus and also allow the intestinal flora to multiply.



2) For next feeding (after the wait) feed a VERY small prey item (about 1/4 - 1/2 size of normal, smaller is more likely to have good results). The smaller prey item will be much easier to pass down, easier toi digest with the likely still reduced flora and also quicker to digest meaning much kess likely to be regurged!!!!



3) over the next few feeding cycles, SLOWLY increase frequency and meal size back to normal. Say maybe 4 feed cycles??
