Urgert!

My snake is eating a rat, its her first, when she was constricting it, the guts EXPOLDED OUT, theres ovaries, intestines, stomachs hanging out, can she eat it? WILL IT HURT HER!

Yes she can eat it, yes she'll be fine.

theres blood all over her, do i give her a bath ?

I wouldn't, just a wipe her down with a damp paper towel.

Let her eat it. Tomorrow, wipe her down. Let her at least start to digest it before stressing her out by picking her up and cleaning. Relax, no biggie.

My BRB did that last night in his water bowl. I had just cleaned it too.

The fun side to owning snakes!

Snakes good... It's all gonna' end up in the belly if she eats it regularly, right?

Cleaning, not my area. Warm, wet paper towels sounds good, maybe a drop of soap. You don't really want rat blood on your snake unsanitized, even if it is captive bred rat blood, do you? Someone with more experience can answer that.

My question for some people though, why don't ya'll take the water bowls out of the enclosure?

Because it's huge and many times he is in it. Even after he ate he laid in it. It was a wrestling match to get him to relocate to his hide so I could clean it. He is 5.5 ft and alittle pushy at times.

Now that the panic is done, seeing a thread titled Urgert made my day :P
