I couldn't resist...

No, I get it.. I commend you for that. I've never done it for these 3.. didn't even cross my mind, being CB from Scott and Don...

I just don't have another cage.. I've already put him in (dang it--I feel stupid) and I can't figure out how I'd do this. If I thought there'd be such a concern I wouldn't have bought him.

A good quarantine policy is something you will have to set-up.
Your snakes will probably be OK this time but you can't run the risk anymore.
I by no means am telling you what to do but I do know that you care about your snakes and only want the best for them.

[RedSidedSPR]

I do. I would rather have you physically force me to do this stuff than not say it. I just had no idea, or I would either have it set up, or not bought him.

Is it too late? I mean, he's been in there...

[guidofatherof5]

Nothing wrong with starting your policy now.
Just do it

[RedSidedSPR]

Meaning, i should do it this time, or is it too late?!

[ConcinusMan]

Definitely not too late. It's your call though. You could just leave things the way they are and probably nothing will happen, but on the slim chance that it does, and your snakes all get wiped out, the responsibility for that is yours and yours alone.

[RedSidedSPR]

I understand. I want to do it, but I'd have to have another tank... argh.

But wouldn't anything he "has" have done it's thing?

Would i have to start tonight???

[d_virginiana]

I'd go ahead and quarantine him if I were you... A cheap critter keeper even would work since he's a baby. They're usually under ten bucks complete with a snapped-on, baby-proof lid

I was talking to the guy at the fish and reptile store I mentioned in an earlier post about going to the Raleigh expo. Apparently he gets a lot of charity cases after that particular show where people unknowingly get sick snakes or non-eaters and bring them to him for help. Not trying to scare you here, since he was mainly talking about python vendors as that's what he's into. Still, better to be safe than sorry IMO; it probably won't hurt to wait till tomorrow if it's too late to go out and find something tonight.

On a happier note though, that is such a cute snake! You're so lucky you could pick something up from the show!

[RedSidedSPR]

What do I look for? How would I know if anythings wrong anyway?

Yeah, I was glad to find him.

You could even pick up a small 10 gallon tank for about $10.00. Even Steve highly recommended quarantining the snakes I got from him from my group until we were sure. They are actually still in their own enclosure. You just never know.
