little secret no one has mentioned yet....

megacolon is only spread if you breed for others....

if you are breeding and feeding these animals off, MC does not hurt your snake.

If you breed a trillion animals, and feed them all to your snakes...mc was not spread to another generation

and the red around your males eyes could have been caused by a number of things...

common issues...

dust...from the bedding

stress...from you being in his cage.

but yes...you need to have a shorted or a better vented cage.
