Please never force feed your snake anything ever again. No one should ever force feed a snake without being shown...assist feeding is much safer and easily taught, but also it is something that an experienced herper needs to show you.
Anyone reading this new to keeping - never attempt this, force or assist feeding is only something experienced people should do and if you are worried about the snake not eating, seek advice from an experienced herper before ever attempting force feeding anything at all to a snake. It is very stressful and dangerous for your animal. And I mean anything, not only sharp dangerous things like a chooks head.
I'm happy you posted up ashman, at least others can learn from your mistake.
I wish somehow that all this was covered in a book or something and some sort of exam was given before licenses were handed out for reptiles, it would save much grief for the owner, but especially the animal.
Well today he had his injection of baytril. The only thing we have to worry about now is infection. Here is a picture of him and just to clarify things, he is not a Cross. He is a high yellow diamond from Daniel Cull. Thanks
My diamond has not been feeding so i tried to force feed him with a bantam chicken head and it went straight through the side of his neck. The wound is only about 4mm long and there is no blood. What should i do.
Stop keeping snakes ! If you don't know what you are doing , why harm animals ??? It hasn't eaten for 3 months , so you shove a batam's head down it's throat , you must be very experienced to be force feeding snakes . Good luck
