Ingested some bedding... okay?
I just fed Kipling the JCP his first fuzzy mouse, and while he snatched it right off the tongs, it took him a while to get in position for eating... he tried it sideways at first, but realized that wasn't happening.  In the process of moving around the tub he got some (Carefresh) bedding in his mouth, most of which I was able to extract with the tongs - but some of it definitely got ingested. Will he be okay??
Before the next feeding I'll either switch him to newspaper bedding, or start feeding him in a separate tub, which I've never done with any of my snakes... only way to keep this from happening again, though! Just want to know if he'll be okay after eating a tiny bit of Carefresh, and in the meantime here are a few pictures from the feeding:
What?? I can fit it in this way... right? 




How on earth did dog hair get in the water?? I swear that stuff flies, since the dog's never been near the tub...
