    Hurricane Sandy Foster Home Needed Urgent!
    I live in Nassau County NY and need to foster my 5 BP's immediately. Amazingly they survived 2 days of sub 65 temps. i managed to save them from the rising tide on my ground floor. I have not attempted to feed them, and sadly they are all in one 41 qt tub with me. It was my only choice, and regretably there was no way to prepare for 3 ft of water in a home that never sa a drop of flooding.

    The snakes are as follows:

    Breeding (not proven) pair of 100% Het Het Albino's (Male 1200g, F-1600g)
    2 Female Spiders 500+g each
    1 Male pastel-600g

    All 5 were eating FT and thriving exceptionally well.

    If you live reasonably close to Oceanside, NY and can help, call my mobile ASAP 201.280.5509. We can discuss arrangments. Please text or call that number, as my internet access will be limited, and I may not have access to this site too often.

    Thanks in advance, and prayers to others affected by Sandy's visit.

    Wish we were closer. Would foster in a heartbeat for you. I'm so sorry for the damages and hope you can get a foster home swiftly.

    Hmm I doubt he would be in the situation to fork over money for shipping . His house seems to have a lot if damage and that's going to eat through his wallet.
    OP I would love to help but I'm in California....

    A note from Admin:

    Normally, we would not allow this sort of thread to be placed, as it is considered an "advert" and should go in the sales forum. HOWEVER, I think it's in everyone's best interest to make an exception for those with animals displaced by the hurricane.

    I wish there were more we could do to help, but at least we can allow our members the best chance possible at finding safe places of refuge for their animals.


    Good luck!! And may your recovery be swift and as trouble-free as possible!

    Hey guys,

    I talked to Adam last nite on the phone. He's still not sure what he's gunna do with the snakes yet bc he's unsure how long itll take the house to get back to liveable conditions. (He mentioned something about a cleaning crew being there to clean any mold or anything that may have started to grow after the water receded). The snakes are all safe at the moment at his parets house. He said theyre all doing ok, the room theyre in now is nice and warm. Whether or not he decides to have someone snakesit temporarily is up to him and he's still undecided. Just wanted to let everyone know that his snakes ARE ok right now. :)

    -Mike
