Warning: This post contains mildly disgusting images!!
So I don't know who knows what's happening with my snakes right now, but here's an overview. Aurora has now refused her 5th week of food (this thread is not about Aurora!), and my second female, Raya regurged about a month ago. She refused her food yesterday, and..
Now she left this in her cage:
this is the actual color of the thing

I'm 99% sure it's a regurge, the only thing is it's only the spine and tail that was regurged and they were regurged 10 days after eating!!
4 days ago or so she left this poop, which also looks a bit undigested or under-digested.

Any ideas and advice on Raya would be great!!
I think that this is all a sign that she is having a hard time digesting. It is hard to tell if she is sick, as she has never moved around a lot while I have had her, always sitting in her cold side hide till everyone's asleep, but I don't think she is. she seems okay, so i think she is missing some of the Bactria she is supposed to have in her gut or something like that. i will try to get some nutribac (where do I get this) as soon as possible, as well as some grapefruit extract. I think, as long as she eats tonight, and I'm still planning on feeding her because of the minute scale of this regurge, then I think she is still okay to breed this weekend.
Am I correct on any of this? Again, advice and pointers would be great! Thanks in advance.
