Can I put my future snake......

In a tub where my snake Zooey RIP got sick in. I will disinfect and use new hides and a water dish. She also didnt die in it .

Hi,

What did she get sick with?

Im really not sure she stopped eating so I moved her to a smaller tub and in 12 days she died but also developed these strange lines on her belly.

Hi,

Well I can't think of anything offhand that produces lines on the belly - apart from possibly a burn? Anyone else know of anything that does?

You said you planned to disinfect thoroughly so aside from double checking the temps under the substrate etc I can't think of anything else that jumps out as a warning sign.

scale rot

Hi,

Yes I just found that but sadly there are no pictures to help work out what it could be. :(

OP,

What did you mean in that thread when you said the stripes ran "horizontally"?

Do you mean head to tail, side to side or back to belly?

I was treating her for it but if it was scale rot it would only be a minor case.

if it was from neck to tail it was not a minor case of scale rot that would be very advanced and it would also require internal meds as well as external.

this is the worst i have ever seen with scale rot.
also this is not a great way to treat it.

It was no where that bad her belly was white with orange tints but she only had these lines for 6 days and then died.
