mouse bit balls eyeball

the eye is kinda dented in now.wat should i do?

Are you serious? That's gotta be so painful... I'd be on the phone with an emergency 24-hour vet right now. I don't play around with that kind of stuff...

yup,serious.
there is no bleeding or anything,its just dented in.

Still, if it were me? Vet.

i dont know of any 24 hour vets.i will take her tomorow.has anyone had this happen?

One of the many dangers we face by feeding live to a snake. Get it to a vet asap and see if there is anything the vet sees that you may not.

poor guy good luck and get him to a vet asap and keep us updated...

ugh,this blows.

Ditto that, darlin'.
Eyeballs are nothing to be messed with... vet time :oops:

Ouch!!! I hope everything goes well at the vet. Good luck

wasnt someone else just asking about switching back to live???



man... im sorry but this is exactly why im a 100 percent advocate of f/t feeding unless live is your last resort... :(

everything is good.no damage to the eye

I had something similar with my large adult female after she laid... her coordination, and I assume muscle control, was off just enough that an ASF was able to get a nip into the eye.

Seems they are more resilient than we thought. I waited a day to do a second exam and she was fine.

Maybe someone with a bit more knowledge on physiology can jump in, but I asssume the outer eye is designed to *resist* such things.

Glad to hear she/he is OK. :)
