Re: Red Tail almost Seizuring
Wow Pat, when I saw the video you sent me, I told you she looked like she was stretched out due to something painful in her intestines. I wonder if she had a blockage or something? Any luck with the vet coming back yet?

Re: Red Tail almost Seizuring
Pat I'm so sorry to read this. You and your girlfriend must be a mess worrying about your snake. I don't know where you live to even try and search out a vet for you. If I was you, I'd be try contacting a few major boa breeders to see if they've any advise to offer, other than what's been offered here or if they've seen this type of thing before. Also if you have a major zoo near you, phone them. They will have an exotics vet on call and a back up for that vet. Explain the situation and your need to have this snake seen ASAP and hopefully they will cough up a phone number for you.
Re: Red Tail almost Seizuring
My only suggestion is for after she comes out of the sugar soak. Run out and grab a roll of Viva brand papertowels...the plain white ones. They are cloth soft, do not shred up easily when wet and I'd be putting her on layers of them wetted down to keep that area moist.
Re: Red Tail almost Seizuring
Man; I am sorry that it is coming to this. I agree with Jo, regarding the moist PTowels. I did this when one of my hatchlings came out with some yolk unabsorbed, and it helped until it was absorbed.
