"Ok well thanks to everyone who posted. But most of you over exxagerate tooo much. lol no offense. I am pretty sure she diod it because the mosue was too big. an adult mouse has a girth of 1" she has a girth of 1/2 inch. She never has problems feeding. I fed her a hopper mouse today she took it no proiblem. I am just going to give her one of them every 5 days untils shes ready for adult mice...thanks for the help"

If you would like to really listen to some advice this time I would like to know what you keep your temps at? I would also like to suggest that in 3 weeks when you attempt to feed her again you give the snake some bene-bac oraly and also syringe some into the rat before you feed this will provide good bacteria lost from regurging. I would also reccomend that you feed a pinky rat rather than a fuzzy mouse. The pinky rat is easier to digest than the fuzzy mouse. You are really approching a tough time now because it has been so long since she has held down a meal. The most important thing you can do is keep her hydrated. Good luck and please listen to us next time we are really only trying to help. Vinnie
