    Quarantine Question.........

    Not sure if this should go here so if it needs to be moved, thats cool

    I know new snakes should be in quarantine for at least 30 days.
    What do you do it you have 2 or more snakes coming in?
    Do they each go into different rooms or do you lump them all in one QT room?
    Also is there any set distance away the QT room should be?
    I ask this because we have one QT in our bedroom and another in my office mainly because these are the two rooms on the other end of the house from our snakes. BUT if I was to order the female I want.............I have no other place to keep her away from everyone else Does this mean I have to wait 2 1/2 more months to get another ball???

    Re: Quarantine Question.........

    Around here usually when snakes are coming in it's several of them at one time so it's not an issue they all get quarantined at the same time, I also could use my bedroom for QT but I like to QT new animals in just one room.

    Now should animals arrive at different time and place in QT while other animals are already in QT this would reset QT to zero.

    My worry is.............if you get (# of snakes) and then get (# of snakes more) from different sources and the LAST one you get in would be the one with say RI, doesnt that screw the rest of them too? Or would that only happen if they were in the same tank/enclosure??
