    kingsnake help!!

    i own a kingsnake and a little while after feeding her she developed a bruise on her head.
    i dont know if she is spitting the mouse back up or maybe she knocked her head on something, but its got me a bit worried. i have owned her for about a year now and i have never seen this before.
    anyone who knows the answer and would love to help that would be awsome!!!
    thanks,
    gabriella.

    Re: kingsnake help!!

    As far as I knew, you cannot properly see bruises on snakes underneath their scales. Sometimes, you can see a bit of swelling under the scales but that's about it.

    What are you actually seeing?
