cut frozen mouse

ryuman1 Mar 15, 2008 07:12 PM

I just switched two of my corns to fuzzies. They're F/T Arctic Mice from T-rex.(i know their to expensive but i dont have much options). One of the mice had a cut on its stomach. It was all the way through the skin. Any reason for this? Ive had my first snake die (gall bladder rupture is believed??). And i dont want another death for something stupid.

My guess would be just a cut from cutting another mouse to close to this one. I use to cut the heads off frozen pinkies to feed a non feeder, Every now and then the blade would hit another frozen mouse. If you are that worried about it through the mouse away and get another. Call whoever you got it from and explain this to them and ask if there is any reason for it they can think of, they will probably tell you the same thing I just did
