That's what's strange about the situation, is that there's nothing wrong with the snake. She's a bit skinny from having 16 babies a few weeks ago, but that's it. I've been doing some thinking about the situation, and it seems that in all likelihood she just drank a bunch of water right before I held her. I've read on here water can "spill" out of snakes' mouths if they drink a lot and then are handled after, and that sounds a lot like what happened last night, only made infinitely more disgusting because she had eaten recently.

The snake didn't actually regurgitate... The food is still inside of her, it was just the watery liquid that came out (about a teaspoon). Regardless, I'll still be keeping a close eye on her to make sure she doesn't actually regurgitate the rat, which has never been a problem with her or any of my sand boas.
