Bcc regurge
My baby guyana bcc just regurgitated this morning. She ate a rat crawler. And all the temps are good. Humidity aswell. She has been growing good and looks healthy. I wonder why she did this. I did not handle her at all after the meal. Any ideas or help?

Could have taken since Jan for problems to show up.
I don't mean this in an offensive manner, but it seems like most aspects of your husbandry are off.

Re: Bcc regurge
In the book the complete boa constrictor it states that bcc require cooler temps than Bci. 95f is too hot. 50-60% humidity may be too low.
Page 269 " amazon basin creatures like cool, humid conditions."
How large of a bulge do the rat crawlers leave? The book also states that bcc eat less.

I would say so, but I do not know to what temperatures. I am only telling you what the book says. I do not own any bcc myself

Re: Bcc regurge
And it didn't leave much of a bulge. The rat wasn't to big. When I bought it they said the care was just like a bci. I have two bci and there doing amazing

Where did you buy it from? Bcc and Bci have different care requirements.

Re: Bcc regurge
How are you controlling/measuring your temps?
I keep my hot spots on my bcc at around 89-91. Never had any problems with regurge.

This is why you need to research before taking in an animal. They are wrong to tell you that.
