Snake CPR
So I just had a crazy experience with a hatchling bp it was a twin egg baby and the other snake didn't fully develop. She hatch on 7/4/15 at 33g after every trick in the book to get her to eat was a fail...so I tried assist feeding today along with another clutch mate first snake when good so I move on to tiny took awhile but she looked like she was going to take it so I left her be and came back like 5 min later and she was upsidedown not moving or breathing... I got the pinky out and she was starting to get a blue belly. I was freaking out at this point I started rubbing her belly from neck to tail and forced air into her lungs with a small Turkey baster after about 2 minutes she took a big gasp of air and closed her mouth. She took about 5 min to start breathing regularly. She is now curled up in her hide seaming to be doing OK.....im realy confused as to what all just took place and hope everything is going to work out for the good.... This first clutch has not failed to surprise me yet.
