Well my only live eater finally got bit. I feel like it's partially my fault. I didn't notice she was going into blue whenever I fed her last weekend. She's been a mouser so when I put the first one in I was kinda surprised she struck twice and it hopped out of the way before she got it but then I didn't think anything of it and just did my usual check that it was all the way down before offering another. Anyways, I'm guessing with her limited vision she didn't get a good hold on one of them and it bit her about 5 times. They didn't seem vet worthy to me, just a little blood on the one so I just cleaned her up and put plain newsprint on then a few times. She finally shed and the lower bites are just like scratches but you can see the one closest to her head is the only one that looks a little deeper. So my question is, should I hold off feeding for another week or two until that top bite heals more or resume normal weekend feeding? I hate that I've tried every trick possible to get her on ft to avoid this happening but the pain in the butt just wants nothing to do with dead.
