This thread is getting a bit harsh. As snake keepers we all should know what we are getting into. The snake needs to see a vet or be humanly put down. Some people here may not have a limit to what they will spend on vet bills but some of us do. That doesn't make us bad people. As snake keepers we all make the decision to end an animals life to feed our snakes. Unless we are vegetarian we end animals lives to feed ourselves. Putting a snake down because you don't want to spend $350 dollars on a vet bill is not any worse, in my eyes, than ending 3 chickens lives because I have a craving for a dozen chicken wings (and legs). At the end of the day we all have a line and we shouldn't judge others for where they draw their line. On the other hand I do judge people for inaction, vet or euthanasia, choose quickly.
