I found this: http://nwreptiles.com/pics/DSC_0116.JPG In my boa's water dish. I've seen it twice before, and assume it's some sort of parasite or worm.
Yikes!!!
holy crap what is that? When did you get this boa? And did u quarantine it? Or is it with the rest of your collection?
I rescued him a while back, and he had a bad URI. He's been in quarantine. I need to know what kind of worm this is, and how to treat it. It's about 4-5 inches long.

Vet said it was more like a mucus plug of some kind... He gave me a specimen jar to hold onto if I get a fresh one, or other future surprises.

Crazy stuff there....:O
A very LATE update... And I'm sorry the photo no longer shows. I long since forgot about this thread. It turned out, it was the shed from one of his hemipenis'. I wasn't aware that they did shed.
