I'm looking forward to reports of what transpired during the appointment yesterday. I am also hoping that the OP, when at the office, inquired about the credentials of the person who comes in on Wednesdays.

Went to the vet yesterday. Was recommended to go to a exotic specialist for this. She had no idea what it could be. She had told me that she mainly works in the zoos and hasn't dealt with bp's in years and out of touch. She was a very sweet lady but just couldn't help. She said its not a kink because "it" had movement in the tail. Didn't seem like a broken bone didn't seem like a infection. She just said I needed to see a expert in exotics. She said "it" was healthy it didn't seem to bother her to bad. That she was a little fat and to not feed every 5 days but 7. As long as the back comes to a point it was fine(see the back bone.

Wasn't able to sex her because she didn't have the probe. This what gets me, she told me when probing it stops after a scale for a male and it will keep going in for a female. Well I talked with a exotic specialist to set up a new appointment. He told me the opposite when it keeps going in its a male. If the probe stops after a couple scales its a female.
Well what is it?

East Coast looks like you have yourself in a little hard place. No room to talk obviously. LOL get him chillins.

A male has an inverted hemipenes so the probe will go in farther if it's a male and only a fraction of that depth if it's a female.

Have you scheduled with the specialist?

Thanks for the info. I felt she had her probe but was scared about probing it. Didn't know how when I was told by Mr. Tyler Walker I believe was his name that it was done different.

I haven't scheduled a appointment yet. I am out of funds due to it being the first of the month. BILLS. I will try my best to have this done next week. My bud is having me over this morning show me how to incubate deal with the eggs cutting etc. He will probe here this morning and maybe he might be able to tell me what this defect is. I will refer him to here and he can clear this up. That there is something there. Weather it's nothing or not theres a defect in the tail. Vet said its not genetic but something that happen in birth. Still is a defect for a perfect snake.

I have always found the BOI quite informative. It is, at times, frustrating trying to troll through pages and pages of posts, but that is a minor complaint compared to the valuable information that it provides. The pros outweigh the cons by far. Anyway, back on track...

Defect or not, you don't deserve any refund for keeping the snake. I hope you have come to terms with that. Good luck with her.

BTW sorry should of caught this earlier zilla was just a info thread not a bad guy thread. Posting about the trouble I was having and to inform others of the quality of there tanks. Admitting to finding a solution. They found the reason it was all assembly error or shipping. How am i wrong there? Mud was slung and justified. Wasn't my fault the tanks cracked and lids came undone. The water idea on the uth was told to me by tech as impossible.

Read bubba I am very aware of this. I'm not worried about the money anymore and it has been out of the window since friday. Your reading from 5or7 to end start from page 1. "Money is gone vamouse spent" This is the bad review for him selling a snake as "perfect" when there is a defect

Your seller offered a full refund. We STILL do not know what the problem is. It may be an injury that happened in your care, for all we know.

You claim the vet said:

Smells like tuna to me.

But the vet said #1 it is not a kink..... so the whole get a discount because of a kink arguement goes out the window

James, since I am actually a real snake keeper, breeder, and field-herper --- and can see how inexperienced and ignorant you are of snakes - I can tell you that you are coming across in here as a real fool.
