Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

You got a bunch of snakes in at the same time. Was this is the only one that didn't have heat? How many sources did the other snakes come from? How close were those snakes to this one?

You can look in the videos I posted. Kind of tired messing with her. Letting her rest as well.

None made direct contact. Some of them are in the video. All doing fine so far. This is the only one I am having problems with.

If i knew this was going to happen I would have, and also that the snake was 110 degrees when I got her. It's not right, and I have never had to do it with mine, but I have seen videos of people force feeding ball pythons on youtube. It is not going to cause stargazing, that is just totally unrealistic to think that.
When I bring her to the vet tomorrow, he is going to force open her mouth to check the tissue inside, if you guys think that will make her condition worse I will ask him not do to that.

Im still waiting for you to show where your vet is trained to treat reptiles? He doesnt mention it on his site.
I dont think you understand there is a difference between forcing and manually opening the mouth, it can be done, done right and with proper tools. The issue people have a problem with is you possibly drowning the snake with your attempt to hydrate a snake that most likely didnt need hydrating.

Well we can forget about that because it didn't happen. She did not drown. I am glad you cleared it up for your self. Regardless better safe then sorry. Since we know understand that cannot cause stargazing.
When you go to vet school you can specialize in exotics which includes birds and reptiles. The guy is legit. I search for a reptile vet in austin and that was the recommendation I got.

You are right, she didnt drown.
Lets try this another way, if your baby(and I dont know if you have kids or not.) for example, didnt drink his/her formula would you force him/her in a like manner?
Again, Id like to see pictures of the snake, not a video.
Yes, you are right, when you go to vet school, you CAN specialize in exotics, but its not required and its still not listed on your vets page. So your argument is still unfounded.

And obviously if that small amount of stress comparable to a vet check up will cause her to fall ill she is defective and just further justification for my refund or chargeback with ever ends up happing.
