my new arrivals

[drache]

just in today




they're a bit skinny
seem healthy otherwise though
I haven't checked them out in detail yet
want to give them a chance to settle in a bit
they're so beautiful

Nice, Rhea. Watch out for internal parasites with those Xenochrophis if they're wild caught. They are beautiful snakes aren't they. (and very popular just now!) Do you know their sex yet?

females are much bigger than the males,the head is 2 times bigger than the male.

almost the same as the thamnophis ;-)

they're supposed to be 1.2
once things are settling down around here, I'll take a closer look

[drache]

upon closer inspection they definitely have nematodes and one has a blister
they're alert though, and curious
their orifices all look clean
genders 1.1.1, 'til the Doc gets to see them

[jewel-dragons]

why are they so popular? whahahaha :-)

[drache]

I'm pretty sure that I have two males and a female

vet appointment on Friday

Nice additions, congrats

Rhea,

If you get the chance, would you mind taking a picture of the nematodes in the feces? I think it would be very helpful in the future for people who are wondering about the condition of their new arrivals? Luckily, I don't have any nematodes to photograph at the moment .

Good idea Rick.....wish I'd thought of that! Maybe we should all consider photographing every event from now on, good or bad, for the general good of all our members.
