    Well trust me when i say the supervising is really no better than leaving the live mouse in there with your snake. When a mouse does bit it will be to late to pull the mouth off you do not understand how fast it happens,almost instantly after the strike if the mouse wants.

    My bp had what seemed to be the perfect strike,but it was not,and the mouse tried to bite her almost instantly after the strike,but luckily i pulled the mouse head away just in time before any real damage could be done. She has a little tiny mark on her head,the mouse bit but did not get enough time to break her scales and do real damage(should i still but neosporin on),i was so scared you don't understand,i was actually about to just completely stop the feeding and just through the mouse in the fridge,but she was hungry so i let her continue to eat.

    I only see a mark were he tried to bite her and that is about it. Should i put ointment on it still or no? Should i do the whole betadine and neosporin/paper towel thing?

    I will not be feeding live ever again seriously, i felt like a little school girl,i think i even screamed,my heart dropped down into my stomach lol i was so scared.
    This makes no sense. If you weren't supervising it could have gotten much worse. It doesn't sound too bad though. Good luck.
