Respitory Infection?

I would be VERY weary of letting them take it to the vet. I would ask to go along and hear what the vet has to say. It is YOUR animal and you have a right to be there in my opinion. If they come back and tell you all is well I would pay for a second opinion myself and if something is wrong I would demand they pay for it.

Alright that is a very good idea. When i called them they asked a whole bunch of question on how I was taking care of my pet. As if they really care, because they themselves take crappy care of their pets. One of the reasons i bought from Petco is so i could save one of those poor animals. The humidy in the tank was around 25% and the temps in the 70's. I felt really sorry for the animals. I even thought about buying them all, but it would do no good since they would just get a new shipment of them in.

Great news everyone Petco is letting me take the snake into the Vet myself. It took a long time and lots of argueing before they were finally convinced to let me take him in. Now i can get him/her probed to find out the sex. Best of all Petco is paying for the visit.

good luck!! Are we taking bets on the sex?


10 to 1 I bet it is a male :)


Maybe :)

Well my bet is on female.

Male for sure...20 to 1...Not to burst your bubble but Petco gets their snakes through wholesalers. They know their business and pull out the females beforehand. I am sure some get through but the chances are slim.

I have two from petco. (one I purchased and one from a rescue) Both ended up females, so it happens. ;)
