Dropped snakes or snakes dropping...

I gotta ask this...

First night i had my snake she got herself in a precarious position and dropped the 40cm to the ground.

Then thru poor handling, she dropped again - I felt so horrible...

Then tonight, thru poor thought on her behalf my wee spotted jumped from the couch... well, not as much jumped as fell... With a flop... onto the tiles... I guess 45cm there too...

Does it hurt them? Are they designed to take a fall? What do I look for if the snake is injured? What are signs of distress?

And last but not least.. how do I know when my snake is hungry - i feed her weekly as suggested, but what if the fuzzies i give are too small? Will she feel hungry?

thanks!
