I woke up this morning and checked on the snake, but couldn't find it anywhere, so promptly panicked, even though my boyfriend was right and he couldn't have escaped - he was under a layer of paper towel.
Whilst looking for him, I found this in his paper towel tube. I'm guessing it's a regurgitation, but I wanted to check...
I only got my snake on saturday, and it had been fed two pinkies on friday, so this of course wasn't ideal for travelling. I'm guessing it has something to do with my stress or temps... I had the mat stat set to 80F until yesterday when I thought it would be better to have the temps at around 85F and so the snake can choose which temp it wants to be in. I checked the min/max function just now and it appears the highest temp reached was 89F! I've turned the matstat down and read the feeding issues thread in the FAQ's. I'm worried as I've only had him for less than two days and things are already going wrong!
Do you think temperature is the problem and what temp do you recommend (I know the gradient should be around 85F to 70F)?
Thanks for your help!
