Re: Help pls
Did you actually pay money to your neighbor for this snake? If you did i would demand my money back in order to defrain some of the vet bills.In my 9yrs experiance with reptiles and running a rescue for a short time i have never seen anything as bad as that poor snakes injuries.Does this neighbor have any other pets? If so are they neglected also? If the answer to the latter question is yes turn them into your local animal authorities!!! Please keep us posted

Re: Help pls
If he has any problems with you paying, just tell him you will report him for crualty to animals, I don't know if you can do that where you live, but here in the states we have a lot of organizations that focus on crualty prevension.
If anything else you may want to soak him in a light mixture of betadine in warm water, it will atleast help disinfect it and kill any bacteria on the surface.
Good Luck!!!
OOOOPS! I guess joe beat me to it on the animal control issue

Re: Help pls
Polak,
You are very welcome. I only did for you what i would have done for any thing in that condition.
For those of you reading Polak sat on a messenger and had his web cam on and I talked him though everything he needed to do right away to make the tank as sterile as possible and give the snake as little stress as possible. He did everything. Cleaned out the tank and laid down newspaper, took everything out that wasnt needed, and got a small water dish for drinking only. and even made the sanke a new hide out of a shoe box that it went for straight away.
His tank is now set up perfect and clean.
this took the better part of an hour and in my mind was time well spent. He is showing true dedication to this snake.
If he continues with the care i laid out and follows the vets instructions this snake will make a good recovery.
Polak keep up the good work. and koodoes to you. the snake gods smiled down on you with this little guy. I know where their eyes were now when my 3 escapees went missing. It was for a good cause.
