Thanks, I didn't even think about the humidity and infection... I will go take the wet hide out right now... Along with neosporin treatment, thanks for the advice... Taking a closer look at him he has several crush wounds... I have some pics and as soon as I figure out how to post them I will. But the little fella sure doesnt seem to let his wounds slow him down!!! He is a fast little bugger!!! Very very pretty snake. Looking at my feild guide I can almost swear he is a flat headed snake... I live near Tupelo MS. And as far as the Vet thing goes, I would be more than happy to take him to one if there were one within an hour drive or so, but the closest I can find is all the way down on the coast. We'll just have to muddle our way through this ourselves... I will see in a few days if he will eat, then hopefully I can get a few feedings into him and get some good defecation I will find him an appropriate spot in my yard to call home. There he will only have birds, racoons, and possibly a stray cat or two to deal with and not some 7 year old screaming little girl and her daddy!!! Wish us luck!!!
