Darn boa....Vet visit=$$$

My fault entirely. I left one of the latched on the Boaphile partially unlatched. Ruby(My 6'+ boas) got out and made her way across the room to the rat rack. She pushed one of the tubs out and helped herself to a few big momma racks in the "ready to pop" level of the rack. In the process she got a gash on her head and something managed to cause swelling in her bottom jaw.
Well 83$ worth of meds and time from the vet later, I learned a valuable lesson about rushing to get things done. I need to hire someone to protect me from myself!!!
Thanks for listening

$83 is not bad... try close to $1000 on about $40.00 worth of CH hatcling ball pythons.

Sorry Jake. Prolly a good reason to move the rat colony into another room though.

Sorry to hear that! Thanks for sharing it will be a good reminder for others. Yet I agree, at 83 bucks you got off light. Last trip to the vet with my black lab mix ran me 500 bucks, :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r:

LOL - $83 sounds very reasonable to me too! Sorry to hear that happened to you!

I love our not pet insurance card thingy!:D

Any way glad the snake is ok

Glad to hear the snake's okay and personally, anytime I can get out of a vet's office for under a hundred bucks...I'm a happy camper! :carrot:

Glad your snake's ok, and I hear ya, I mean, dont get me wrong, I'm happy to get outta there with as low a bill as possible, but I have to admit, I sit and think, do you know how many feeders i could get for 80 bucks!

80$ on an un needed visit of me being paranoid just bothers me for some reason. The snakies are all in the basement for now waiting on the room to get done, she traveled well over 50' across the cool floor to get the rats, I thought they were far enough away, I guess not. Lesson learned either way
