Re: HELP!!! Snake was bit by a rat
She's going to live.
In the future, don't use peroxide on injuries, use neosporin or similar with NO pain reliever in it.
You won't be able to tell after her next shed. I guarantee you - it was more tramatic to you than to her.
I do feed live, and rats to all of my colony every week. It's important to not feed much larger than a small rat to any sized ball python. Mediums and larges are more likely to cause injuries, while smalls pose an extremely small risk.

Hydrocortisone or bacitracin would work as well.
