snake got bit

Yes. It can cause a whole host of problems. Infections can occur which would be the most common thing. First of all you shouldn't be feeding your ball or any of your snakes live prey. You should be feeding f/t. There is absolutely no advantage to feeding live, only disadvantages. You should probably take your ball to the vet as soon as possible.

I have to disagree with you here. Yes, bites can happen when you feed live prey. I have a snake that is very picky latley and I am going to have to try and feed live. This snake does not accept f/t prey. There are many people on here who feed live prey without any problems. To the OP, can you post a picture of the wound that your snake has? You may be able to just treat the wound with neopsorin without the pain reliever in it. There is no need to come down so harshly on someone that feeds live.
