Re: Regurgitation Syndrome

I definitely think that the textbook version of how to build up a snake after regurge is, while not "bad", is certainly not acceptable in ALL, or even MOST instances.

Mozart, for example. I was told often to wait 1-2 weeks after regurge to feed again, and feed something small and inoffensive. Well, every single time she would regurge again. One time I waited 5 weeks, and that was the only meal she kept down, but she died shortly thereafter. I fully blame my own ignorance, and the ignorance of those "experts" in my life to provide adequate(and accurate) information as the cause of her death.

I think that the "textbook" answer ought to be changed, and have many an asterix mark and many sub categories for type of snake, locality, size, weight, age, etc. There are SO MANY possibilities and variables in this sort of thing... one single cut and dry answer doesn't work in this instance.
