Second, the main reason it is inadvisable to leave your bp in water overnight is because they might drown. Could you swim for 5 hours straight?

Third, nobody is trying to attack you. Some of the comments may seem blunt, and often are, but everybody here is working towards the same goal: The swift and complete recovery of your BP.

It's fine if you don't want to try the ideas listed here. I can think of a couple that I wouldn't try with my snakes if they had stuck eye caps. I'm not going to mention them and start a war, but they are there.

Lastly, I hope your BP recovers. My snakes are part of my family too, and I would feel really bad if anything happened to one of them.

Thanks,

Rescue facilities - not animal shelters...

I didn't make her swim for 5 hours... she had something in there is keep her above water....

Listen in the end I have done what I can to smooth this over... when you start off a post with something about dog & cat shelters... your questioning my intelligence... or I'm questioning yours... I wasn't referring to "Shelters" I was referring to Rescues, like reptile and snake rescues....In the end she did ok all night long... and now I am packing her up to go take her to get help...

The whole purpose of this thread was missed... We live in an area without many specialist, so I was bouncing ideas off of people on here in hopes that it would give me some type of starting point for our vets here... I've made many calls... hopefully, I've found one that knows enough... I appreciate the people who did help... but I won't ever do this again... In the end I really hope she will make it...
