    You could make him a latex suit, complete with multitudes of zippers and call the MouseGeek, or just put him down.

    He may recover, but he may not.

    How much time do you really want to spend nursing it? If it's a feeder, feed it off.

    Unless you put out rodent poison. In that case, just put it down and throw it out.
    I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

    That little mouse cheated death. I guess he does deserve a chance to live.

    Im not really sure how wild mice do in captivity.

    Hmmmm I'm pretty sure if it's a wild rodent (didn't come from the pet store) you should just throw it away. You really don't want to be giving any of your snake's a wild rodent as the rodent can be carrying parasites and other nasty stuff.

    You aimed to kill it, now you're nursing it back to health and releasing it?


    Snap it's neck already! Would YOU want to even be awake if your HIP was broken?
