As for opening his mouth then you could try matty's ideas but do not try to give him a pinky a day, snakes digestive systems don't work in the same way as ours, their built to eat a learge prey item every few-several days, they cant constantly digest food. |

I have not yet needed to administer oral meds, put to open a snakes mouth I use either a sexing probe, or one of those school rulers that gets thinner towards the sides. |

oh just thought maybe i can feed him pinkies with the stuff already in? he normally eats large mice. but the meds hes meant to take for 6 days. would a pinky per day be a bad thing? |
