so my garter snake is in the same tank as my bp and they get along just fine they chill in the hide together coiled up but then I fed a rat to sgt pepper and he didnt eat it and the rat ended up chompin on my garter snake, ok damn that really sucks but I didnt think he'd die from it and he looked fine jus scared, that was last night, this mornin I found him like really puffed up, when i picked him up he was completely limp and soft like a marshmallow, and the substrate was like jammed into his mouth and he was barely alive and only moved a little when I tried to open his mouth and try and get some substrate out of it, and I dunno but it might be the substrate cuz its jammed inside him?
does anyone know what could've happened?
