omg! it was bad enough treating a dog with flat worms.... i can just imagine....

Emily I am so sorry for having to go through this. I purchased one animal from Ed and although she has grown great and seems fine I will be definately doing a fecal next time she has one.

I never said anything before but the pastel looked WAY brighter on the photos he showed then the pastel looked when she arrived. I thought maybe he just showed me a REALLY good pic but after all of the fallout, mite thing and now this, I question his integrity.

Thank you for sharing so anyone else (and I know there are several) of his past customers can check their animals. Thankfully for me it was not an expensive purchase and so far everything seems OK.

With that in mind a BOI post may help others who may have a potential problem.


Best of luck, may it pass quickly :)

I have a couple from Ed. I'll definitely be doing fecals on them.

That is nasty. I have one that I got from Ed awhile back and I always got fecels done on new snakes; he was clean.. but I do not plan on purchasing from Ed if this is the case.. I consider myself lucky..
I would let him know, though. If for no other reason than, not letting him know, and talking about it to others, just would seem kind of odd to me.. I guess I am just paranoid about covering my own butt in situations where someone did something wrong to me.. later on he could go back and say "oh, you never told me about it when it happened.." Ya know? I feel bad for you and your snake definately.. I would have a conniption if I saw that!!

i would definitely send him an email but don't expect him to respond... after all that IS classic ed... lacking a response to a post/email/confrontation. he's the master of making up a claim (where he is the victim) and then crawling on his belly into a dark corner and watching the fall out.

i do believe the term to describe him is "slug" http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x...ddess/slug.jpg

i'm so sorry to hear about this em, but i would definitely at least give a heads up to all those other customers who may have infected snakes! think of the snakes... not ed :please:

i have contacted ed letting him know about the situation. if he does not address the problem i will make a post on the boi so that any others with snakes from him will be aware and can get fecals done.

Emily, I'm really sorry to hear about the results of the vet exam. How frequently must you treat your little girl and what is the prognosis? I'm sending lots of healthy vibes your way.

Oh Em how awful. I hope the treatment goes well and quickly and there isn't a problem with the other snakes. :hug:
