Re: Stefan's garters

If it was mouth rot, you'd see it pretty quickly....inflamed gums, minor bleeding, fasting.

Re: Stefan's garters

I don't see any gums, haven't even seen it yawn. Can't see any bleeding but it is fasting, although I have been taking that as a seasonal thing since they both started and as the temperature is higher than usual.

Re: Stefan's garters

Okay, they're not fasting anymore.

Managed to have a look inside the mouth of the one with the messed up jaw, while it was eating. The inside of the mouth is a healthy pink with no discoloration. No wounds.

Re: Stefan's garters



I'm really starting to like the paper pellet substrate. May not be the most natural looking material, but it's okay. I assume it's practically the same stuff as carefresh, only pressed to pellets.

Don, I completely forgot to comment on your snakes. They look great, especially that first stripeless one.

Re: Stefan's garters

Stefan, good to hear they're eating again, and that the one you were concerned about seems fine. We certainly don't need any more sick snake worries around here!

Re: Stefan's garters

I really hope that when I get my vagrans this year they have that kind of colouration. They are so much more attractive than the brown ones.
