she is probably very scared after being moved and fed on the same day.wait 7 days before you feed or handle it.

You should leave her in her faun or viv for 7 days without feeding or handling her. Also if she regurges her food don't offer her another untill she is next due a feed.

I'd leave her at least a week from when the regurge was to give her belly a bit of time to settle.

Am glad you are going to wait another week til you feed or handle her again - just put your hand in her viv to change the water daily and clean the substrate.

You say you only handled her to clean her out because she had pooed and weed, was this within 48hrs after her being fed? You must never handle a snake for 48 hrs after a feed cos this will cause them stress and a regurge. They need heat and peace and quiet to digest their meal...and handling disrupts this.

Can you give us a better idea of her set-up? Viv size, substrate, way of heating, way of controlling heating, hides etc. As much info as possible because then we can rule out any other reasons for her regurge.

Since you've not told us anything about your set up then it's a bit difficult to comment on what the problem could be.
