Sugiro uma melhor pesquisa sobre a espécie em causa... na verdade as BCC, em especial as suriname, mas não só, são frequentemente afectadas pelo que se designa de Regurgitation Syndrome, causa aliás de muitas fatalidades nesta espécie.

"The Regurgitation Syndrome is one of the most frequent causes of death in true redtail Boa constrictors!!! It is associated with a significant loss of water and minerals in the affected
animal's body.
Mostly the snake keeper is responsible for the occurance of the Regurgitation syndrome due to wrong feeding!
Primarily affected:
... are neonates of redtail Boa c. constrictor such as true Surinames, Guyanas, Peruvians, and Brazilians, furthermore Boa c. amarali and Boa c. occidentalis.
Possible causes of the Regurgitation syndrome:
a.. Insufficiently developed digestive tract in neonates of the
above mentioned subspecies
b.. Too large prey items and/ore too frequent feeding (the main
reason!)
c.. Insufficient temperatures and humidity in the enclosure
d.. Internal parasites (wildcaught Boa constrictors)
e.. Bacterial infections of the stomach/intestine
f.. Nervousness because of handling or dominant specimen in the
same enclosure"
