i was trying to feed alfy late at night in his separate enclosure and he wasn't taking it. i accidently dropped the rat and then i thought i would close the lid and see if he eats it. then i layed down for a second but fell asleep! poor alfy was locked in there with the dead rat for five and half hours!! i have heard horror stories about snakes getting really sick this way. do you guys think he will be alright?? i would absolutely die if anything happened to him.
