Terrified...

She will be fine! Make sure she has hides that fit her. Try not to handle until she is eating good. Definately, feed, check, clean your established guy first. Then a good wash and then new guy. Maybe not back to your established guy on same day.

People purchase new snakes all the time, and yours aren't going to die!! :gj:

In all seriousness, it sounds like you are doing everything right and have little to worry about.

She sure is cute!!

My first ball was a captive hatched import and she was riddled with parasites and infection. She was a tiny little baby too. My vet fixed her up and saved her life. She is now a healthy 9 year old. I wouldn't worry if I were you. There have been much worse cases out there.

She is absolutely adorable!!! She looks like such a baby in that picture - all bashful and cute. Awww..... :oops:

Anyhoo, Aaron hit the nail on the head with the quarantine. You'll be fine. And your baby is most definitely not going to die! ;)

Gale, I thought I was the only one who must check my snakes 15 times a day, lifting hides, making sure they weren't dead.... Haha! :D

I think that we have all been like that at some point or another lol. I certainly know I was.

Sigh, no wonder she is so tiny... she's afraid of her food, live or f/t. Time to coax another BP to eat lol.
