What are some guidelines for quarantining new animals? The only thing a search turned up was a broken link to Triple Moon Exotics. What does your setup look like? How long do you quarantine? What things do you specifically look for?

Thanks!
 
Up until he moved I would send my new arrivals to live at a friend's house for three months, as his wife only permitted him to have one snake at a time (and it couldn't be his LOL).

The best most of us can do is a separate room on the opposite side of or a different floor of the house for at least three months, and that clock resets if the snake has mites or gets sick.

Snakes in QT have their own equipment, feeding tongs, spray bottles, etc.

Work with / feed / clean the established collection first, then the snakes in QT, and shower immediately afterward.
