It's been... 2 and a bit days since Dimi's regurge, should I attempt to feed her again now - a smaller meal than usual? Or should I leave her for another week? I usually give her a small fuzz, I could give her a really small fuzzie or a pinky?

Seen as she had barely digested the meal then regurged and poo'd in the same night - I'm thinking she might be really hungry. And she only regurged (I think) because she was in shed and it was a lot to digest.

I won't offer her food when she's in shed next time, but I will AFTER she has shed the skin I've learnt my lesson - but I won't feed her until you guys give me the go-ahead x)

Leave her for at least 10 days, better than having another regurge. Give her a smaller meal when you do feed her.

Leave her for 10 days since the regurge so another 8 days, let the stomach juices build up, they can go for ages without food she will be perfectly fine. Feed her too soon and she may well regurge that meal aswell.

I know GP, I read that too - but for some reason I had the weirdest impression that some people on here recommended that you feed a few days after... I don't know why I thought that, but anyhow, I'm not feeding until the ten days is up.
