That lump is back... or not? I am having a difficult time telling because she does that wavy belly thing along her whole underside when running over my fingers, so the lump disappears whenever I try to get a closer look. But then again, it's clearly visible in the photo.
Sadly, she did regurg a mouse tail, some fur, and a foot last Monday (Sept 8), about a week after being fed (Sept 2). At least, I think it's regurg--I didn't witness it and there's no way solid body parts could come out her booty, right? I should have chased her into one of the hides, because I did notice that she didn't spend time in either of them for the first day after eating (she sat behind the lower heat hide), but I thought little of it because she was still technically above the heat mat (whoops). I've been following Kathy Love's regurg guide and have been waiting the 8 days before feeding her again (should I wait longer? It looks like her guide is for younger snakes...). She also let loose a large mound of normal-looking poop this past weekend (Sept 13). But is there still food in her even after 2 weeks since eating, you think?
I will be seeing a reptile specialist at the local animal hospital this Thursday (wish I could schedule earlier, but they were booked!) to see what they think it is. I will update on what I find out!
I wish I could take better photos, but she is pretty fidgety whenever she sees the camera/phone (like, wanting to crawl on top of it instead of stay in my hand!). Snake, I'm trying to figure out if you're okay--KEEP STILL!!!
