So I had Fiona my albino corn that I got as a retired classroom pet a few months back. 8 year old full grown female. Well I allowed someone to hold her at my educational show. I was talking to someone else when Fiona went into her purse. I didn't think much about it at first until I hear, "She is in my key ring!" I stop what I am doing, grab her out of the ladies purse and find that she was stuck about 6 or 8 inches in the key ring. I start working the key ring backwards off of her as gently as I can. Fiona goes nuts. She bites me and then bites herself in fear and pain. Someone brings me a towel and we use that to control her head while I continue to work her free of the ring. The place where she was stuck has about 4 rows of scales that tore a little as I removed it and blead some. I don't think any ribs are broken and put cream on the wound. After she was free of the keys I placed her and the towel in her tub so she could hide and calm down some. I pick her up 2 hours later to look her over and she is back to normal just a little more shy. Was scary for everyone. I did point out that she is a nice animal still just the fear and pain made her fight for her life. So happy she is safe now.
