    Re: Help! BP hurt :(

    good on you for taking care of her so diligently. Make sure while you have her on a towel that if she urinates to change it right away as to not have her slither in it if at all possible. Sorry ...lol...Im anal! I am so glad to hear she is doing better. Also keep in mind snakes typically will shed alot more to heal the area, so don't be alarmed if you get quite a few sheds in a short time.

    I'll get some more shots of her neck on Sunday as she just ate and I wouldn't want anything coming back up . I kind of have to wait for her to explore her tank and go up the tank glass to get those shots, hard to take shots of her underside when nobody will hold her! Such a big bad snake!

    I actually took her off the towel because I noticed her rubbing her neck a lot on the edges that would curl up. Also, the temperatures on the top of the towel was 90.5, but underneath on the glass it was 97. I didn't want her to burn if she got under the towel so I removed it for both of those reasons. She's back on newspaper and seems to be doing fine.

    Re: Help! BP hurt :(

    She's being difficult trying to get pictures of it, but I put her out on the bed before putting the cream on her and took some pictures of her... i believe her eyes are starting to get a little cloudy and I was going to feed her tomorrow, should I wait until after she sheds? Could just be my eyes, but I believe they're starting to cloud up...they look more of a grey then blue though.

    They'll be blue tomorrow. It always takes mine 2 days to turn fully blue, and they're this shade of gray on the first day. Unfortunately, that's the most insight I can offer...

    Re: Help! BP hurt :(

    That's pretty blue already, actually.

    I'd wait? She might not eat anyway until a day or two after shedding.

    The flash makes it look blue, its a greyish color without the flash.

    I guess a better word is "opaque." Anyway, she's pretty opaque already!

    Re: Help! BP hurt :(

    Well her eyes cleared up, so I gave her a soak in the warm bath. While drying her her vent looked bulged and red, as I was looking at it...she let loose pee and urate all over my hand and paper towel.... Least its better there than her clean cage! I got 1 picture of her cut and it looks dirty, but I didn't want to stress her out so I'm gonna clean it later before she sheds. I haven't cleaned it in a couple days as her eyes have been blue!




    I also took some other pictures of her
