Just fed him today but when he struck and coiled he also bit his neck, he let go of both after 30 seconds and I got him to strike again although he took it backwards after much struggle getting one of the legs in. Couldn't really inspect his neck but is there a chance he could have injured him self? I saw that his teeth went in but I don't know how far, couldn't see any blood.
Shouldn't really handle him until Saturday night... |

| Well I would imagine if he went on to eat afterwards without a problem he should be ok... Just keep an eye on him.. |

Learn something new every day. Never heard of a snake biting himself. 
Would you clean the area with some antiseptic? |
