Its Aspen bedding. Do I need to worry? I couldn't think of any way to get the bits out of its mouth while it was swallowing the mouse. It swallowed about half as much bedding as the size of the mouse.

Now that you can't do anything about it then don't worry, but next time don't place the prey on bedding, and also if the snake was to swallow some bedding with the mouse usually the best way is to handle the animal very aggresively so it would reject the prey.

Don't worry about it. Wild snakes swallow leaves and other debris when they eat. Just make sure the snake poops normally.

In the wild snakes swallow loads of strange things. There's a reason they do it, that I can't remember.

It should be fine. Just make sure that it is pooping regularly. If not it may have an obstruction which will need to be removed by the vet.

well if it was a really big amount it isn't good for it but it shouldn't hurt it, make sureit is acting normal and is pooping regularly. If not I would take it to a vet.

you should always feed your snake in a feeding bin ,so that dosn't happen and then they dont get confused when you reach in to take them out, so they wont bite you, check out http://www.cornsnakes.com
