Rescue help?

It sounds like the snake is lucky to be alive, as a female rat of breeding size is a more appropriate meal for a boa or retic, not a ball python.

If the bite wounds are superficial then you can continue with the iodine or pick up some Vetericyn topical antiseptic. Personally I prefer the Vetericyn for reptiles.

Yes though I got the hydrogel. I like it because it's not goopy or greasy so stuff doesn't stick to it. Works on people too.

I think Petco also carries it.

Vetricyn is great. I also use it with poultry. Never spray it on puncture wounds, it's mostly for superficial stuff.
