quarintine and miss or.....

So last night I picked up a 3380ish gram female normal. The guy who had her runs a big cat sanctuary and takes EXELENT care of his animals. When I was putting her into her quarantine tub I thought I felt follicles. Do I risk it, do a shorter quarantine or just miss this year?

I'd wait... I didn't because my girl was ready I thought and it bite me in the BUT.... I spent almost $1,800 on vet bills now and have 3 snakes getting better.

but your case is different. If you REALLY trust the guy you could, but I would wait.

Even assuming that the person has no issues at all and the snake is 100% healthy your snakes and this new snake are used to different types of bacteria and such in water and food it may not agree with all of yours. I would wait rather than add stress to your new girl or older males with the addition of new bacteria.
