He is blue but feeds anyway so we gave him a fuzzy
He struck it coiled round it and somehow he ended up with his own neck in his mouth after 2 mins he let go ... is there anyway to make them open up or did we do right just leaving him cant see any blood will he be ok ?....he is now eating the fluzzy

I would have thought he will be ok if there is no blood and he fed straight after.

There eyesight is pretty poor when in blue and sometimes miss the mark. As long as he's realized his mistake, released and then taken the fuzzy then he should be OK.

I just don't feed mine when she's in shed mode. Reduces any potential problems.
