    Ouch... I've heard mice are more aggresive than rats. Either way, you shouldn't be leaving a live prey item in the tank with your snake unattended.

    A little mouse can kill your snake if left overnight.

    If the snake isn't eating, chances are there is something ELSE wrong with the husbandry. But it won't be eating until that is healed either now.

    Well, 3-4 weeks is not a long time to go off feed, so it's not too big of a deal.
    Do you plan on taking him to the vet?

    Make sure the neosporin doesn't have any pain reliever in it.
