Keeping quarentine while transporting
Hello, this is a great community I ahve been lurking here for awhile but never registered.
I have a 5 year old iguana and a 2 year old BP, I have finally talked my wife into letting me get another BP so I looked into adoption first. I found a female normal that I would like to get.
My question is my iguana and BP have their yearly checkups this weekend, if I wanted to adopt this female BP and take it to the same check up do I risk breaking quarantine? They would all be in seperate enclosures of course.
Thanks for your help

as long as you and the vet wash hands and only touch the new animals after touching the old ones and dont go back and forth and make sure you use lots of hand washing before putting the new one in its cage you should be fine

What about airborne transmitted diseases? I'm a little OCD so I would personally do two separate trips to avoid the risk.

This is kind of what I was thinking, the rescue says that the BP was taken to the vet recently and is clean but I never chance these things. I guess two trips is what I will do
