I was taking out my snake to handle him and the top of the cage fell on his head. he seems fine he's moving and stuff but wont move unless i poke him. there is a big bump on his head...it was actually on his neck not his head. please help im worried and scared
How big/heavy is the top of the cage?? Did it drop from a fully open position (upright) to slamming down? or did it just drop from a semi-open point? How old is the snake (roughly)? How long is the snake (ish)?
Snakes are resilient but are also fragile. Make sure he's warm and sitting in the warm end, and keep an eye on him overnight. Most certainly see if you can get him to somewhere that REALLY knows snake stuff.
Kehhlyr, you always ask the right questions, would be exactly what I wanted to know. Plays2, I would be absolutely freaked out by what happened and very worried. Waiting to see what happens sounds ok but wont stop you worrying. Do you have anyone around you who really knows snakes who could check him out? xxx
