    I dont think someone could give you instructions on how to give the shots to your snake over the internet and feel comfortable doing it.You might misunderstand there instructions and harm your snake and that would make that person feel bad.I am not saying you WOULD hurt your snake on purpose here.I suggest you contact your vet and have him/her show you personaly.

    Re: how do i give R.I. injection?

    Nope do not do it if you do not feel completly comfortable doing so. Go back and have your vet do another injection for you or maybe have him walk you though it when YOU giving the injections. I HATE needles, but after having my friend do a few shots for me I am now "ok" enough to give my snake(s) a injection and feel safe doing so. No need to risk hurting your snake in the precess of trying to make it better in the long run.
