I've had my pair of CB04 Argentines for 4 months now. They have been fed from the same source ( as have all my animals ) since I've had them. About 3 weeks ago I fed them and they puked within 2 days of being fed. I waited two weeks and fed them again. The male puked 2 days after being fed, the Female took about 5 days to give it back to me. All my other animals are fine and havn't had a problem with what they are being fed. I have had this problem once before with another small Argentine, but it was considered a fluke by both me and the breeder and was returned to the breeder. I keep them the way I keep all my Boas, with a 86 Degree hot spot and a cool spot that varies from 76-80 degrees. Other than puking, they act normally and still love to "Kiss" me. I'm going to dig out my panacur and flagyl and give them 2 treatments and see how that goes. I've always considered Argentines to be bulletproof, so I don't know whats going on?

• Increase the basking spot 5 degrees....low temps might be the problem. np - Philip Niforatos, Sun Jan 9 17:09:04 2005
