Snakemaster... the last update was that it was doing better and had eaten. Did you read the whole thread...?
 
What an insensitive post! If you bothered to read the thread you would know that she has been getting it seen to and was in the process of seeing a herp vet when she last posted. She also has stated that his condition overall seems to be improving.
 
Hi All, Sorry I have not been on few a while.
Aladdin is doing soooooo well :)
I spoke to vet and he said to continue with what i am doing. He didn't need anymore antibiotics. he is well on the mend. need to feed him again in a day or two. when he sheds he will look so much better.
He still has his hole but using the honey is fixing it and it is getting a lot smaller than what it was.
Aladdin is much more active and alert. looking great and will be fine :)
I have learnt a huge lesson. I will not or never was going to put him down. some people should learn to read before making comments!
Thank you so much to everyone who has followed aladdin's recovery and offered some fantastic advice. you have all been mine and Aladdin's life savers.

Cheers
Jacinta :)
 
I'm so pleased to hear Aladdin is on the mend. Thanks for the update.
 
you must find a herp specialist vet or i suggest putting it down you might hope that it pulls through but more likly its just dieing very slowly i am truly sorry but you must do what is right for the snake

Now that Jacinta has had the chance to set you straight with how well her little guy as pulled through how about you either learn some diplomacy or keep your opinons to yourself until you dry up a bit as you are obviously still wet behind the ears.

There have been a number of threads that show how tough snakes are and how they can pull through with some tlc do a search for recent threads about rescuing Bredli and see what can be done befor you tell someone to put their favourite down, or are you that stone cold you would knock your snake on the head if he was sick??

Oh and Jacinta... This thread is useless without pics!!!8)

Thanks for your support Gruni :)
I have tried and tried to put pics in this tread but they won't show :( I have however put some of aladdin in my profile so whomever is interested can go there and have a look. Will put some updated photos this week after next feed :)
 
Hi Jacinta

I'm so glad to read that Aladdin is doing so much better. I just joined this site and I am in the process of buying a Diamond Python.

I wanted you to know that I read your entire thread and I have learnt so much from what everyone has written. I'm sorry that some people gave you a hard time, but it's awesome to see the majority give extremely informative advice.
 
Must admit he really does look ordinary at this point doesn't he? Can't wait to see him after he sheds. :)

Thanks Deb :)
will get them up as soon as he sheds, hopefully this week :)
 
Put him down? Wow. No second chances for a sick snake in that household....

I notice mine seem to slow down a little in winter. Seeing I could never be absolutely certain as to whether it's because they're sick or not this year it'll be "off with their heads" if they don't stay active.
 
Is it just me or is he very yellow? His colouring. Glad to hear he's on the mend!

Yes but he is The Snake Master so best not to second guess that one I think Striker... :lol:
 
Snakemaster I am not sure where you are coming from but clearly you have limited experience in these matters.

There is an old saying....'If you don't have anything helpfu to say don't say anything at all !!'
 
For future reference...Not too sure if anyone else has said it but for a live feed (as it is illegal) as a last resort give the rat a small bash on the head to stun them a bit that way the snake can strike and coil without getting bitten. Hope the little fella is on the mend!
 
That must make it very hard for vets there. Have any evidence for this (or where it is on paper)?

Hi there. I believe that it's different for vets to euthanize a creature that is dying etc but I am awaiting a call from the RSPCA to confirm that it is illegal
