I'm sorry SatanicIntention, but I REALLY disagree about the mouse not hurting the snake part. I know you probably have tons more experience than me, but I've had one of my ball pythons attacked by a mouse. I got a mouse for free, so I figured I'd give my girl a shot at live feeding...it bit her 4 times in less than 15 seconds...it flat out attacked her. No, it didn't do much damage, but she certainly seemed traumatized for the next couple weeks of feeding.
I really don't see why you insist that feeding it a live mouse is a cure to a problem like this. Why does it need to be live, if the owner clearly states that the snake feeds on f/t? How is this relevant? Also, why is this the right time to push a fecal, when you have no idea if this person has had it done or not?
This person asked for help about an injury, not for your entire makeover of their husbandry. Sure, I can understand where one or two suggestions might come from, but this just seems rediculous.
