It has been in a 30 long with water, a hide spot, under tank heater etc...bought it small and fed feeder mice. As it grew it went to small then medium rats. I fed it bi weekly then one day it wouldn't eat. I left it in Texas with a friend while i am spending the spring in DC. She has tried rats and mice with no success. Feeding at night/day doesn't matter. She just told me he threw up recently and is yawning very often. His bedding is repti-bark. Does anyone think he could have swallowed a piece of bark or something? Might try a gerbil soon. I have not seen him in 2 months so I am not sure how much weight he has lost. Any herp people out there have a suggestion? I am a fish guy and have not studied much herpetalogy. Thanks
