Thank you very much Stockeh.
The vet gives her a 50/50 chance which is better than I expected.
I bought her off a guy called Kevin Sturgess. The other two I got off him are fine so far. The vet was of the opinion that she was probably a wild caught snake.He is most likely right.

The vet called at 6pm. He managed to get all her bits back inside her and stitched her back up for the time being. He said that she came out of the anasthetic ok and now we have to wait to see how she goes overnight.
Not out of the woods yet.

Progress update.
I brought Nelly home on Thursday morning. Two hours later she passed some more worms (dead this time ) and her intestine was sticking out about 1cm. Enough for me to race her straight back to the vets.
When the vet checked her, it had gone back in by itself, which is great. The vet was even happier to hear she had passed some dead worms. He anethetised her and checked her out. He found a dead patch on the inside of her intestine about the size of a 50c piece which came away.The vet said this is also good. He kept her over night and I picked her up on Friday morning.
I just checked her 5 mins ago and she is doing fine. All I have to do is get her eating with in two weeks or she will be getting force fed.
The vet was great and the total bill only came to $90 which was a pleasant surprise.

Greebo,
Pleased to hear that she is on the mend.
That is one hell of a nice Vet to charge that amount, he must be one of the very few that have a genuine interest in reptiles and don't try to charge silly money just because it is an unusual pet. What's his name and phone number for my future reference?
Cheers
Neil
