Posted - 07/01/2010 : 06:11:03 It's always best to let a new addition settle in for 5 to 7 days before you even offer it food. As a rule, hognose snakes are pretty easy going, but the odd individual can be stressed and sometimes the only sign could be regurgitation. My suggestion to you would be to leave him alone for a week and feed him a smaller then normal meal after that one week period. I would further suggest no handling until it has digested two meals properly. This should take care of the problem. |
