- Update - Fiona have passed away recently.
Since July she have had a stool test ( came back negative ) and an ultrasound ( could not see anything special as well. )
She died from crypto, confirmed via stool from autopsy.
Towards the end of her life I ended up bringing Fiona to a reptile specialist that lectures in universities because literally the few exotic vet I have visited had no clue what was wrong with her. The specialist have sent an official letter to the reptile shop that sold me Fiona about the test result { we know what this means, most likely all the reptiles in that store is contaminated }
I had to throw out all the equipment, housing, container and wipe down any surface I may have touched after handling her stools with hydrogen peroxide and ammonia. Worst of all I don't know when is it safe to have another snake because this bloody parasite can live on surfaces for over 2 years ...
I wish there is more informations on snake Crypto and be made more aware to reptile pet owners
