My new pewter is not right. Help!!!!

Where r u located? I know up here we recently had cool weather but recently its been about 80 during the day and cool at night. So if it was stuck in the warm weather with the heated box it could've gotten too hot.

They were scheduled to be delivered 10:30 am. But were delayed and only in Indiana at that time. Then they were left in memphis TN and were not suppost to ship until some time today.

I raised a stink and got them to expedite last night to new hampshire where a currier drove them up to vermont in his car, he arrived a little after 2 this morning.

That is to bad. I hope he pulls through for you.

What kind of heat pack was in the box? I had a friend recieve a snake some time ago that was kinda doing the same thing with the twitchin and after tests at the vet then a second vet oppinion it was concluded that it was a chemical in the heat pack the shipper used. The shipper had used some off brand hand warmers. Hand warmers heat up faster and can actually get hot enough to cause burns especially if there isnt enough oxygen. Both vets said that it was a result of overheating and exposure to the chemical in the hand warmer.

I haven't seen the video, but we had a snake that this happened to same as what you described, unfortunately he died. After necropsy we found out that his liver had failed. I hope this isn't the case, I don't know if this is treatable or not. Good luck with him though.

Oh that video!!:( He's such a beautiful snake too. I truly hope he gets better. Please keep us up to date on him!

He's has what is to believed a bite mark under his chin. He is also head and tail twitching, shakes, recoils if he touches anything, looks up like stargazing, but no corkscrewing. No signs of mites.

I'm freaking out here. Help is appreciated, breeder has been contacted.

If you send me an e-mail I can send pics and video right away, I will probably be up all night after pulling an all nighter last night waiting for him to arrive via speecial currier.

Thanks everyone.steve4940@comcast.net
