Would a vet really give an O.K.?
to sell a collection that was recently found to have paramyxovirus deaths in it?
...would they? I thought euthanasia was the best option in cases where paramyxo virus spread through the collection. Even without symptoms surely, these animals will spread it through other people's collections...
The seller is local and only posting the snakes for sell in local fb groups. Not any reptile based groups in which she had announced that she was having deaths that were found to be a paramyxovirus?

A vet really has no say on what a person can sell.

Anybody who states otherwise didn't Google hard enough.
good to know, but also quite depressing.

Take screen shots of the forums where the seller stated s/he had snakes die of a PMV and post the pics on the ads. As Skip noted, PMV's can lay dormant for a very long time. This seller is being irresponsible and putting other people's collections at risk.
