Question about illness transmission
I was just wondering - can common illnesses that water dragons and/or geckos contract be transmitted to my snake that is kept in a different room.
I am not aware of common illnesses in geckos and water dragons but my son has two lizards in my house and I was worried that they could possible put my snakes health in jeopardy.
Hopefully, I am just being paranoid. Your thoughts.
Thanks.

Darn, I was hoping someone would have some insight into this.
Anyone????
Re: Question about illness transmission
well, just washing hands before handling the geckos/water dragon before going to your snake or vice-versa. air contamination is very rare, the common ones are surface contaminants.
hope others have their say.
Re: Question about illness transmission
thanks EdShal for your resonse. I never handle the lizards - they belong to my son but it certainly reassures me that air contamination is not a risk.
Thanks again for your help.
