Snake bit his tail

My snake bit his own tail today when I took him out of his cage =/ It looked fine and hes only about 20in or so, but when I came back in after cleaning his cage he was resting his tail in his water tub, hes also near shedding, but I was wondering if anyone has seen this? or if you think it will be any sort of problem

Hi,

It will in all probability be fine. :)

They can't see very well at certain times of the shedding cycle (when they are in blue ) and that can make them a lot more nervous and prone to defensive strikes at the big moving shadow. ;)

thank you :) ya, he looks like a dork with his cloudy eyes right now lol

I am sure he is fine, odd trick for a ball python usually that is a kingsnake stunt.
