I fed Bongo a mouse yesterday and put him back into his cage without really inspecting him, and tonight I found two cuts on his face!



I just put his head under a warm tap to wash it off, and I applied some Neosporin to the cuts. They were very small, but damn, that was scary! The last thing I need is an infection on his face. If it doesn't heal quickly, I'll take him to the vet post-haste.

I guess all I can say is FEED F/T! Take my advice! It really does happen! Seeing your snake bleeding really sucks.

I thought it was only rats that put up a fight, but I guess I was wrong. Tomorrow I'm going to see if I can order some small rats.
