yea but it was'nt like the whole pinky obviously because i fed him on the 22nd and i fed him 2 but they were big pinkys could this be why because it was to much for him cos the next feed i was going to put him onto a fuzzy.

I heard leaving them 10 days is best to let the bacteria levels get back up.
You should always leave him for about 48hrs after feeding or there is a chance of regurge, he may have just been stressed.
