...come tell this person why it's fine to have two snakes in one vivarium? I mean, we see you all posting about how it's OK BEFORE there are any problems to be found, but I have never seen one of you do so AFTER one among multiple corns in a single tank is puking and there is no way to tell which one!
What is that saying again? Oh yeah..."Consistency, thou art a jewel!" Please, someone be consistent and come tell us why keeping these corns together is such a good idea for this person, now that one of them is puking for an unknown reason!
As to the original question...
You're likely going to find that both of your snakes are fine, and the sunglow regurged because it was ready to shed. Some do that, especially young ones. However, there is no way to KNOW for sure that the sunglow is the one that regurged, or that this is the actual reason...hence the problems with cohabitating them.
So, I would strongly suggest you separate them, wait ten days to feed them again (or longer in the case of the sunglow, if it still hasn't shed), then watch them individually to see how they do. If one or the other of them shows signs of being sick after that, you'll need to get both of them to a vet.
I hope everything works out well for you and your snakes. Good luck!
