    snake bitten
    I was feeding my new pastel when it was bitten my the mouse, i didnt see it until he was done constricting it and began to eat it. It doesnt look too bad, but ive never had this happen before so i just want some opinions. should i get it looked at by a vet?

    That doesn't look too bad. i would keep a close eye on it and if you start to see signs of infection get him to a vet.

    You can apply some diluted betadine solution to the bite to disinfect it. Don't use Neosporin or any other oil based cream as they will do more harm than good.

    okay it doesnt seem to be bothering him but like i said, ive never had that happen before so i was kinda freaking out. i know at local pet stores they have some would healing stuff, would that be worth getting?
