Most of the serious scale damage is gone. There's no other way that it could have gone. There were scales going the wrong direction in patches down his sides. Everything is the right direction now, and he underwent serious color change (the damage made him gray for the past month in a few places).

I dunno. He constricts his mice sometimes and usually just swallows them whole... but i always feed in a different container.
