i never thought i'd have to make such a thread, but here we are! i've said over and over again on this forum: "if Corny ever refuses a meal, he's going to the vet!" i was already working on finding a vet and trying to talk to a vet on the phone because Corny has suffered some unexplained weight loss, but this past weekend Corny refused his large mouse, so i just went ahead and booked an appointment for a fecal smear and an exam.
the place is really far from me, but it was one of the only well-reviewed exotic vets around and they also had a pic of a ball python on their website and not just dogs/cats, so i took that as a good sign. our appt is this saturday 9am cst.
when i gave the lady Corny's name she just started laughing lol. i was like "i didn't name him, i just kept it." i was also really, really confused when she asked "Color?" as in what color he was. hahaha.
i'll be updating you all as we go! i'm really nervous!!!any advice on bringing a snake into a vet? i've only done this once when Yellow was just a baby.
any specific questions i should ask regarding the smear or other exams/tests?
thanks everyone.
