Re: How long should I wait before I start handling?

I've been checking husbandry every few hours. It's perfect. I waited 50 hours before handling, so I don't see how that could be an issue either. If it wasn't too big, then I honestly don't know why he would have regurgitated. It's obviously my fault though as his caretaker and I want to make sure this doesn't happen again.

It's really great that you're holding yourself accountable.

It doesn't happen often as most people blame the snake. So good for you.

In most cases it's keeper error and most often I see husbandry issues. What are the temps you keep? How do you track this?

It could be a faulty temperature gauge inaccurately reading the heat.
