need some HELP !

hey all,
i come to you all for some help and advice. today i checked on everyone, cleaning poop & refilling water bowls. held the little ones for about 5-10minutes. when i picked up CoCo, i notice something not alarming at the time, seem to be the aspen between her scales.

so i used a twizer to pull it off, but as i did that i noticed it wasnt aspen bedding. it was her scales, i didnt pull it off once i seen it was stuck. i left it alone and jus examined it closer, using a flash light to really see what happen of what it was...

in her tub, she has apsen bedding, a coconut hut, and a water bowl. i took everything out and put down paper towl with just the water bowl. i fed her 2-3days ago and she ate 2 small mice. she ate n swallowed them fine, i didnt notice anything, i really didnt check like that, after they all swallowed their food i went to work.
after i put down the paper towel, i held her still so i can put neosporin on the cut.

im looking for advice of what could have happened ... any advice on what to do for the cut ? could it be a bite from a mouse ? bedding can cause it ?

thanks

to me looks like a mouse did it, i couldnt see aspen doing that, unless it was tornado velocity winds ;). I wouldnt put neosporin on it, becuase it is medicated, at least thats what people tell me!

Pretty little snake! Hate to see any sort of injury. :(

I can't imagine the aspen having caused it...but... :confuzd: It may be a mouse bite. Keep the snake on paper until it heals...and neosporin is good, just make sure it doesn't have any pain-reliever in it. It'll probably heal up fine...but a trip to the vet wouldn't be amiss if you are concerned about it getting any worse.

duplicated a pic.... meant to put this one

Is it possible that maybe it was caused from the holes that were cut into her tub and/or hide or anything else similar? You know, from like a sharp edge or something?

Good luck with it!

Tks all... i have been putting Neosoprin, she doesnt like me touching her, moody butt ! but ill check the holes in the tub. i also took out the coconut, and jus keeping her dry. tks for the help. i think she is going to go into shed in the couple of days, so i think it might not be gone by then. but ill see & keep all posted.
