JOEL2006 - Sick Snake

I know people who use newspapers for bedding exclusively (I do not) that have them saved for months. That only proves the photo wasn't taken before that date. The that there was no mention of "treatment" in the original ad or the text correspondence seems misleading. Also that fact that no open mouth pictures have been posted still. I also don't buy that he was worried about the snake's stress level. I'm not that knowledgeable on BHPs, but it didn't take me 20 years experience to know that snakes need a chance to digest their food. Feeding a snake twice a week even while in shed?

^^^Exactly!

you have a good point there on the newspaper and people saving it. I guess I didn't put too much thought into that. but I also realized that wouldn't be holy grail level evidence. it was just an observation.

it seems to me that if good, clear pictures of the inside of the mouth were posted in a timely manner, that could set this whole thing on fire! the longer you wait, the more a picture will not help you, imo. until shown otherwise, I think there is a issue inside of the mouth and you are delaying to cover it up. why else would the op not buy a well priced bhp that was otherwise described correctly?!?! makes no sense why he would go out of his way to cause you unjust problems. he got a refund. joel, whats his motive???

This is the best I can do by myself any one of you on here are more then welcome to come over and help me take better pics expect the Guy that started this ..has a old broken jaw that's it ..

I would take it to a vet. Looks like something is starting to drip near the the end of that metal rod, like grey mucous or something. Possibly a reflection? Hard to tell much from that pick.

It's has bine to the vet nothing wrong just the jaw and the idiot I purchased it from let it heal fucked up .And that's saliva from him fighting with me not to open his mouth....I own 4 blackheaded pythons..They all look the same in the mouth .

Joel, out of curiosity, who did you get that animals from?

Many years ago I hatched a male with a "deformed" bottom jaw line.... same side.

I gave the animal to this guy on the condition that he would give it a great "forever home".

About 2 years ago he stopped communicating with me and I never heard from him again.

Cheers

Thanks I purchased from a guy named Todd Kern here in Pa .He never told me what was wrong with it to i got home then I saw this. So I took it to the vet the checked it and said looks like a old injury or a deformation but he could not conform that.He said no infections.He said it's a healthy looking snake keep up the good work .
