We got our son a 2 month old Corn on Nov 29th. The store fed him that day, and everything was GREAT. The following Sunday, we fed him, and he regurged. We waited a week and fed again...another regurge.
So I put him on the zombie head dining plan. He had a pinkie head without regurge, so the next week, we gave another pinkie head. He kept that down as well. Yesterday, we moved him up to one of the decapatated pinkie bodies. He ate that without much fuss, but the next morning, he regurged it as well.
This time however, it was regurgitated within 16 hours. He normally takes 2-3 days to regurge. Does this imply anything?
He is going back on heads, but I get the feeling like we are prolonging the inevitable. This snake isn't going to make it is he? Assuming we have the fortitude to keep this up, how many heads in a row should I go for this time?
Repticon Charlotte is next weekend, and I plan on making lots of breeder contacts as I dont think our snake is going to make it. I am sorry that I have lost a lot of faith...but this is how I feel.
Nothing has changed in his environment from the time that he kept down the two pinkie heads. My UTH is between 84-89 degrees depending on the inside house temps, and this setting seemed to help him keep the heads down.
Can i keep him on heads long term? Is this viable?
