Same thing happened to my last python Spud, if I were you'd I'd ring up a reptile vet and get him/her checked.

Hope all goes well.

when did it eat last ?, wasnt this the snake that was refusing to eat a little while ago[ a month or so] ?.
i think u still need to go and do some reading on how long u should leave a snake after it has eatern before handling it .

No, grump is no longer with us. Problem is unknown as I didn't think to freeze/refrigerate his body for a necropsy.

Agreed, get her to a vet for a check ASAP if you can.

if thats the case then id be geting it to the vet, as i dont think its undigested food coming up from being over handled.

Are you sure mate? Were are you located, maybe you can convince your parents to drive you to one that does? (Hopefully not that far away, and presuming your under-age) I wouldn't be taking any chances, my last snake died and showed that symptom, I regret going to work that day.

How's she moving and acting? Any different to normal?

Mate snakes do not vomit for no reason, by the sounds of it you need to get it to a vet otherwise your risking killing your snake from lack of action.

Mate, the health of your snake isn't to be taken lightly. I'd still advise on taking it to the vet to get it checked.
