First of all, I'm sorry for the mean responses you got, but they were right.
I'm sure you've figured out by now that keeping two diferent sized corns together is a bad idea, and feeding them together is a HUGE no-no.
I don't know what to do for the snake now that it's beet bit, but get it to a VET! Hopefully there won't be any future feeding problems.
Just for future reference. Even if you keep the two snakes together after this (which you shouldn't) You MUST feed them seperately. Even if they don't go after each others food, they could smell mouse on each other and go for a snack. I even waited a day or two after feeding to put my breeders together, because I was afraid of that happening.
I feed my big snow juvie rats, but frozen/thawed. I don't see any reason pinkies can't be fed live, but once they get those big teeth, it's just to dangerous. It's not at all like in the wild! The mouse/rat is scared and cornered with no-where to run, it's only defense is to bite and scratch.
I hope the other posts didn't make you leave the group here, because really they can be helpful when not on a rampage. Get your snake to a vet, and I'll keep my fingers crossed for a quick and full recovery for her/him.
Now kill those RATS! lol ----- Dianne
