I gave my 6.5 foot boa a live rat about half an hour ago and as he constricted it the rat bit him about 6 inches from his head...i usually feed prekilled but he refused to eat it this week....the wound is small and there is only one but it was bleeding...I put peroxide on it to clean it and then applied bag balm....any other suggestions to what I should do??
all help will be greatly appreciated
thanks sooo much
