Corn digestion time

The last time he regerged was 3 days after eating and it's was mostly digested

He has not had a regurg since then I'm just worried to pick him up and trigger a possible regurg as I'm new to snake keeping...
I don't want to hurt him.
It looks like the lump in his tummy has been gone now for a day or 2

yes, but if he is regurgitating 6 days after eating, then he needs to see a vet ASAP. That would mean "Nothing" is moving through his digestive system indicating a "Blockage."

You're generally not supposed to handle for a day or 2 after eating, but 6 days is plenty of time.

So, you're saying he has regurgitated (I'm guessing a few times, not just once).

And now he has eaten, and it's been 6 days with no regurge and no poop.

If this was my snake, I'd be thinking right now "There is an obstruction or blockage of some type keeping food from passing through."

Are there any reptile vets in your area? If so, you might want to schedule a visit.

The soonest after eating that he regerged was day of feeding.
The longest time after feeding that he regerged was 3 days

Has he even pooped since you've had him?

If not, there is something keeping the poop from moving through his system.

Anyway, I'll not comment any more on the subject. You're obviously determined to see this through "Your way."

Good luck to you and the poor snake.
