So I've never really quarantine before which I know is really bad practice which I did not now before joining this forum. I have my first ever mail order snakes coming. Here are some pictures that were send to me Via a Kingsnake Ad:


1.0 Pastel 700+ Grams (I don't remember exact for sure)


1.0 500g+ She said it was sold to her as a 100% Het Pied. What do you guys think? I'd really like an opinion before I invest in females to breed him with.


0.1 Normal 1800g+Proven Breeder. I really like her pattern.


0.1 Normal 800g+ Also a really nice pattern IMO.

I picked up these guys as a package for 250$+s/h after keeping in contact with the person and trusting that there animals are quality kept. The pastel is gorgeous. THEY'RE ALL GORGEOUS!

So My problem. I've never gotten snakes in the mail and I want to make sure I set up a quarantine since this person isn't a big name breeder so I don't want my babies to get sick or killed. How do I go about setting up an effective quarantine. Should I just build a second, smaller rack set up for new comers in a different room and just make sure to get rid of the packaging right away and wash up really well when done with them? Whats the most effective way to clean out there tubs if forbid one of them is contagious for something? Thanks for the answers ahead of time. And I hope you guys dig the new additions. This is by far the most favorite hobby i've ever had as new as it is. I'm really glad that a community like this exists and I can talk with people with the same passions! Everyone have a great Holiday season! And good luck to everyone's locking couples.
