Hopefully the mouse he ate didn't carry any parasites, though.

Will want to get a fecal done in two weeks or so, who knows what the mouse had living in it.

i was planning on it....for the snake's peace of mind plus my own.....i would never hear the end of it from my kid if anything happened to his snake. i am too afraid to inspect her closer, she's so full i dont want her to regurge

Make sure to keep stress levels down while its digesting. Might be bad if he regurges his huge meal. Damn! What a pig! lol!

Wow, nice widdle piggy! What amazes me is not that the tiny snake was able to get the mouse down, but that the tiny snake was able to constrict with enough force to kill the mouse! Never underestimate the strength of corn snakes! :)

I'll 2nd Ken's comments. Taking down prey that size could have been a life or death struggle either way. Obviously the strong shall survive eh! Most people worry about neonate escapee Corns starving to death. No worries with that little one obviously, LOL Mark I.

i was happy to have her back....my son found her, he was so happy!!, so far she has kept it down, she stays under the heat and hasnt moved, i even moved the water dish beside her so she could get a drink, lazy little bugger only moved her head into to get a drink too...lol, she's still so full she doesnt want to move

unfortuneately she ended regurging her huge meal the other day, did my best to keep the stress down and keep her comfy, i am holding off feeding her for a bit but she is aleady looking for food!! this is the first time she's regurged, i figure its best to wait at least a week before attempting something of a more appropriate size. it was definately one biga$$ mouse, and now that i think about it more, she is lucky to be alive! that mouse had way bigger teeth!!

Sorry to hear she gave you a present. But I guess it was for the best
