Regurge 1 Week After Eating

[PsychoSnake]

I just came home to see my juvenile green anaconda puking. It definitely came out her mouth. I fed her 1 large rat exactly one week ago. Most of the rat looks like it came out as poop and the regurge was small (fraction of the size of the rat) and did not look like a rat. In fact I wonder if it was a hair ball. Anyone have that issue?

I'm really concerned because the last time I had a snake regurge I ended up losing the guy. It started with regurging and then refusing, then weakness and death over a four month period. Should I call my vet?

I don't have own experience with something like this, but I heard that snakes sometimes puke something looking exactly like hair ball. Just give her 2 weeks to regenerate and then offer smaller prey than normally (small rat or medium rat if you're feeding larges). Hope everything will go okay!

Its never a bad idea to check the vet... But id go with what sylphie sais as well :)
