Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Short and simple- take him to a vet and never feed live again.

Thanks...I appreciate your input and advice greatly. I figured and he is there now with my partner. He still has movement which is good...mouse didn't get through the spine...I think he's in a little shock...of course...I think he will do just fine...won't have that great stripe on his back anymore...but he'll be good in no time...thanks guys

I suggest you consider trying to convert to Frozen Thawed or at least Fresh Killed Prey to save on these headaches in the future. Not trying to preach or pick but it would have prevented this.

First, treat the wound, and then take to an EXPERIENCED reptile Vet asap. Then do as the others have said and NEVER ever again leave a live rodent in the enclosure with your snake. In addition, I would strongly recomend that you feed your snake(s) frozen thawed or prekilled. Last but not least, this is really not a BOI issue, This should be brought up in one of the appropriate snake fourms here. They are in need of traffic, and this is why they are there.
