OMG firstly i wrote a whole thread until my Internet stuffed up and lost it all. So now i will cut the story short.
I bought a maculosa from a reputable breeder for a friend who really wanted a snake. I think he wouldnt treat the snake with respect but after two weeks of me teaching him on the basics and fundamentals and plus writing him out a detailed manual i though he was all set. The snake was two months old when i got it and had eaten 5 times, 2 on lizards 3 on mice. When i brought it home it did not eat once. Since it was with me for two weeks I didn’t think much of it as it would of been stressed. Then finally the day came and i handed it over to him.
I saw him again today and asked how the snake was. He then told me it has not eaten once and had since went against what i told him and bought a 4-foot tank for it. I was furious. Told him to hand it over to me tomorrow so i can take it to a vet. I feel so sorry for it and i don’t know how it will look tomorrow. poor bugger.
Ok so when i get it tomorrow what can i do to help it out before i go to a vet. Also what vets is really good with snakes here in Sydney particularly in the inner-western suburbs around auburn and Lidcombe.
