Re: Urgent: Baby corn regurgitation problems

Of course NutriBACdf isn't a substitute for seeking veterinary care for an ill snake, but I think it's an important step towards preventing chronic regurgitation. Any snake, or any other creature for that matter, that's vomited twice has a depleted gut biome and, if it gets depleted enough, it can't regenerate as it should. That's how regurgitation becomes chronic and intractable. Don't underestimate the harmful effects of a depleted gut biome. That's where most of the immune protection of any creature resides.

I've learned this not just from months of experience and research with a chronically regurging BRB but also from study and research I did when I used to keep several species of psittacines. Birds and reptiles are more similar than different in many ways but especially in their digestive tracts.

As I've learned from Jerkface's most recent upchuck, NutriBACdf won't prevent vomiting due to some sort illness, and thus won't mask anything, but it will keep gut biome depletion from becoming an *additional* stress on your animal.
