There was a rough spot on top of his head, sort of like a scab, about 3 mm long and 2 mm wide. I don't know if I mentioned it before, but a couple of times before he went for his mouse he had his mouth open wide, like he was yawning. Don't know if that's significant or not. Once he grabbed his mouse, it took him probably about 30 minutes to get it all the way into his mouth. The mouse was frozen, well thawed and slightly warmed. I looked in my 2 books about corns and didn't see anything under illnesses or anything similar to what he was doing.
Daniel is a little more upset today, he says it's his fault Fred died because "He was my snake and I'm responsible for him". Hard to explain to a 7 year old boy that some things are beyond his control and even when he does his best, things happen.

aw poor kid. He sounds so sweet,
