as i wrote, yesterday my tegu ate a wild snake that manage to get in her cage..... should i be worried about it?
How did a wild snake get into your Tegu's cage - Is it kept outside ? - I would be somewhat concerned as to perhaps toxins the snake May be carrying, along with all the other nasties that come along with wild animals... _________________ 1.0.0 Ball Python "Albino"

Depending upon the species it ate, I would be most worried about parasites and toxins, I would get a fecal run asap. _________________ Currently:

yes, the cage it's outside,probably the snake got caught from my cat, and when he got bored with it she tried to escape from the garden.. the snake was a little natrix natrix
and was about 15 inches and got through the chicken wire right in my tegus mouth!
i'll do the fecal asap and let you know
