    Until you can get your snake to the vets, put him on wet papertowels. Have you checked the snake recently to see if he's still bleeding?

    Good Luck!

    No more bleeding, on wet paper towels seems to be doing good

    Also vet said that if bleeding starts again bring him in asap said it might have damaged hemes a little but since bleeding stopped should be fine but bring him into the office in the am so he can check

    Good luck with your snake's health. I just got my BP a few days ago and I'd be devastated if he got injured. Update us after you take him to the vet please!

    Vet said doesn't look like any damage was done bleeding could've been from the pulling apart and caused some irritation so let's hope he is right

    Check the female, too, make sure it wasn't her blood on him.
