Sorry to hear about your boa. The wounds should heal. Lucky it didn't kill your snake. My advice is to not introduce live feeders. Try to get over the cool factor and and give your snake frozen/thawed rats. It's cheaper to order a quantity of rats and keep in the freezer. If you want some excitement then also purchase a pair of long tweezers and try not to jump when the boa snatches the rat off the end of the tweezers. Good luck.
