I'm waiting on a shipment of f/t, and I don't trust buying f/t from the pet store, so I bought a bunch of live mice. I'm not really particular about feeding live, as long as it's mice, not rats. I supervise VERY closely.
So, one of my babies got bitten.Prospekt, the little 07 ball. It got her after she grabbed it. Thankfully, it isn't bad at all, just a little nick. She's not bleeding freely, but there is blood there. Once she was sure it was dead, she pulled it off of her and is now preparing to eat it.
I think I'm going to let her finish eating and leave her to digest, maybe peek in on her tomorrow. When she's done digesting, I'll check it out and put on a little Neosporin. If it seems serious or if it gets any worse, I'll bring her in. I've got an incredible herp vet here that knows us quite well since I took in the rescue beardie.
Does this sound okay? She seems perfectly fine, I'm just a worry wart. I think I've read far too many horror stories about feeder rodent incidents. Better to be safe than sorry.
