Last time I tried to take a snake to a vet I got pretty much the same treatment. No vets around here know jack ship about snakes. Nothing has changed in the 25+ years since then. There is ONE vet around here that will diagnose/treat big snakes such as boas or pythons and has been doing so since the late 90's but that's it. And that's in a city of 380,000 people.

Steve is lucky to have a good vet at good prices for his snakes. VERY LUCKY.
