OK I would not recomend flagil or panacure just yet. Have you takin her to the vet yet? If so have you done a fecal exam? I have not looked for any other post reguarding this snake so I dont know the whole picture yet. 2 to 3 weeks for feeding sounds about right after a regurge and to fill you in she probably would eat even though she is getting baytril, all the snakes I have treated with baytril would continue to eat even while being treated. I assume you got the baytril from the vet right? I have always given baytril on a daily basis (recomended by my vet)but I'm not vet so do what yours recomends. Regurges and the "runs" will make a boa dehydrated very quickly so keep some pedialite on hand. I had a female that would dump her water out as soon as I put it in her cage so after about a week she became very dehydrated in fact I came home from work and I thought she was dead it was really sad, I sould have given her a dish that she could not dump but I did'nt. After a 24 hour soak in pedalite and some down the hatch she was fine but to warn you, things can happen quick. If she is 21 lbs then she probably will not starve to death so I would lay off the feeding for a few weeks and maybe give some pedalite orally. (flavor,color,odorless) I donot have much experiance with nutribac but I do use it and it seems to do the trick and it is easy to use (mix in pedialite and down the hatch or inject into the next meal) As far as the deworming goes, I would wait to see what the fecal exam shows but if that is not possible then do what you must. Good luck
