    Im not sure what you are trying to say.

    You are feeding and the mouse split apart into two halves?

    If so,

    Is the snake still eating it? If it is let it and all will be well.

    If not I doubt trying to feed right after that is going to go well. I would wait til the next feeding day.


    As far as the feeder size Im lost as to what it has to do with a mouse exploding. It happens.

    I have had that happen a few times. Once my BRB popped one open and then ate it under water.

    I haven't had any popped rats yet but I did have one where the tail just snapped right off when I went to pick it up with the tongs!
