My Rat Snake May Have IBD?

[Albert Clark]

That’s the right decision and congrats for realizing it.

Thank you guys for all of the help, I really appreciate it. As you all have recommended, I am going to rehome him, because I don't really have access to a suitable diet for him. Again, thank you guys, and I hope that his new owner will take the best care of him, as he deserves.

It takes maturity & honesty (to self & others) to admit that you're not the right owner for an animal- at least not right now, though maybe someday you'll be in a position to give proper care to a snake. So thank you for doing the right thing for this snake. Just one more thing though- he needs someone with experience, not just the first person with their hand out that's looking for entertainment, so please be sure to ask enough questions to determine that his new owner can provide for him- proper food, housing & medical care. I have a feeling that someday you'll make a very good snake owner- it's just not the right time.

Please update us on how the rehoming is going. You are not the first and you won't be the last person on this forum to rehome a snake. Sharing your experience will be helpful to others.
