Just curious if I can get any tips I have a 2 yr. old Amel. female, this is her first year that I have tried to produce with her.Shortly after copulation(next morning) she gave back what appeared to be a 95% digested rat.I didnt really think nothing of it at first because I get an occasional gurge from the corns,I gave her a few days and fed her a slightly smaller adult mouse.Everything seemed fine until today when she gave back the mouse too(after 2 1/2 days).I've never had an adult corn regurgitate so now after 2 gurges I am worried.I do not handle my corns much so I cannot peg that as a cause,and my ambient temps. are right where I think they should be(daytime high of mid 80's nighttime low of high 70's).Any advice would be appreciated as I would like to see this clutch come through healthy,on top of the fact that I want to see my female healthy.

When adult corns regurge it is probably invested with parasites. Try to get a stool sample to a vet. Don't feed for 10 days and start with a small fuzzy. If she keeps it inside feed another fuzzy in 7 days and slowly go back to normal sizes.
