    Thank you all for sharing the info you have !!

    I like to stay on top of things like this. I have heard of it in regards to GTP's, but had no idea it had also wiped out several entire Ball Python collections. And those were the ones studied/known of.

    There may have been more of those instances, where people didn't come forward, or simply didn't know..

    Anyone ever heard of it causing issues in Boas ?

    Here is an informational video that shows how to swab and where to send swabs to in order to test for it.

    If you suspect nido you need to find a vet that can prepare a sample and find a lab to confirm testing. There is no vet ready testing to confirm nido as of yet, it must be lab confirmed.

    The post in the thread about GTP nido has a listing of vets and labs familiar with nido.

    This facebook post from Pink Lady Exotics goes into a case study

    As was posted in that video, this is the lab they are using to confirm
