Snake eat something too big?
I'm worried about my 5 mo. old Brazilian rainbow boa. I started feeding him fuzzies (not live) two weeks ago. He took his first one fine, but he wouldn't eat at his next feeding (every 7 days) He was in shed so I wasn't too concerned also since it was a bigger meal. He shed and I fed him last night, and he ate it after it sat in his cage for a little bit. Even though I didn't watch him eat this one he had no trouble with the first one a couple weeks ago but this time his belly looks really tight. This morning I looked in on on him to check him and spray his cage down (I don't handle him for 2 days after feeding) and he seems uncomfortable, his belly looks really big and he snapped at me which has never happened before. This is my first snake and I love him so much and just want to make sure he's okay.
Also I don't think there was a drastic size difference between the two fuzzies, but the the one from his first feeding was a little smaller. Sorry if I'm overreacting but he's never acted like this after eating.
