So I checked in on Akurra ~15min after giving him his fuzzy mouse (was trying to get Manasa to eat), to find it still in his mouth, almost doubled up on itself. By the time I finished my panicked quick check of Google, he had finally got it the rest of the way in.

Given what I've seen people say about carpets being able to take large prey items, plus that he's gotten it down to where it needs to go, I'm not overly concerned at the moment.


What I am wondering is twofold:

1. Besides a regurge, is there anything in particular I should be watching out for in the next couple of days?

2. If this happens again, and he (or even one of my other snakes) is not able to clear it, what (if any) is the procedure short of an emergency vet visit?


Thanks in advance.
