question?

can a bp die if it was eating and accidentally got a some type of bedding ,like any bedding, in its mouth and swallowed it with the mouse/rat?

No

Ball pythons are rarely, if never impacted by substrate. Impaction is only fatal if very severe.

alright thanx so much. i got a lil worried cuz i read that it could. but i tried to get it out as best i could there was just one little piece that i couldnt get. thank you!

No, rarely does it bother them! Their stomach acid is strong enough to break down bones of rats then I am sure it can break down wood!

and dont forget that the trachea lining is pretty durable and wont be cut or punctured easily

alright thank you so much for all you help. it really made me feel alot better about the whole thing:)

No:colbert:.Like someone said before,their stomach acid is very very strong...If their acid can break rats,and mices bones,I know their can break beads.But be carefull with what get to his stomach.:8:

I almost came on here and asked the same thing. It was feeding time yesterday and my python got a couple pieces of repti-bark in with a mouse. I didn't wanna reach in there and try to pick them off...:weirdface

Naw, old wives tale, like hold a snake after eating will make it regurge, another old wives tale :P

It did bother me enough to go away from aspen and to using paper towels, but they can easily digest most bedding.

lol i reached into my snakes mouth and started pulling out the aspen that was in there. well the first time i ever fed my snake she ate a pinkie rat and the next day i held her to clean her cage and a day later she regurged so i think its true. never willl i do that again
