People have different thoughts. I had a 20yo ball python that was given to me (that I recently rehomed) and his poor little face is just a mess of scars. I'm sure it was from rat bites. By the time you find the prey has bitten the snake...it has already bitten. Just like with any bite, it is a puncture infused with bacteria. Once that scab sets it's a nice environment for anaerobic bacteria to grow and create a lovely abscess. Yuck!
