Shanley, do I understand from what you're saying that you have been feeding this snake every day? If so it's not surprising he won't eat today. Even if I misunderstand you, one week is not a long time for a new snake to refuse food. I think you have done right to provide sterile conditions until the wound has been 'looked at', but don't panic yet. The fact the he started to eat the mouse before he dropped it is a good sign. Get some new batteries for that camera!
