But the important thing is to get it treated so the snake can thrive and grow.
My main concern was whether it’s my rodents. I guess you can’t know for sure, but I hatched this guy myself and he has eaten nothing but rodent pro f/t rats since hatching out of the egg. I’ve got hundreds of dollars of rodent pro rats in the freezer and would be upset if they were giving my snakes tape worms.
