Now there's all this blood coming from the umbilical cord....
This is starting to worry me... The snake came out of the egg on its own, and I noticed was still dragging around an umbilical cord, and found a dried up yolk sac that broke off. Problem is I think the umbilical cord area is still bleeding and it's been maybe 7 hours since I've noticed the first drop of blood. That looks like quite a lot of blood for a baby snake.
He definitely was not bleeding when he first came out... This seems like a result from him slithering around everywhere and dragging the umbilical cord around. I looked at where the umbilical cord connects and it is not dried up/still red.
They're on damp paper towels.
Is this worrying? Anything I can do?
