    Dear Mods (and other experts)

    Now that the inappropriate-medical-care-thread-that-shall-not-be-named is gone and things have had a chance to calm down, I was wondering if there was anyone with the knowledge and time willing to write a sticky on actual useful first aid for bp's (or snakes in general) covering what can be treated at home and what needs to be taken to see a vet right away.

    I know that there are some really good threads about husbandry, RI's, shedding, etc., but it would be nice to have something with info such as "If your snake has a pink belly, here is a picture of one in shed, go see the shedding thread, and here is a picture of one with a burn, adjust your temps and go see a vet now."

    A list of items to keep in a snake first aid kit would also be really helpful.

    Thanks in advance if anyone thinks this is a good idea and is willing to take on this kind of project!
