I would put that animal down... You do not need a vet to know that there is a spinal injury... One which will most likely cause it to die anyway... You also do not need a vet to put it down either... Quick, blunt force trama to the head will quickly and humanely dispatch the suffering snake...



Just wondering what type of water bowl was being used to inflict that sort of damage...



I know you think you are doing the right thing by trying to give it a "chance at life" but in my eyes it is a bit selfish and self serving when the animal in question is in that bad of shape...
