    Quarantine Process...

    Do I still need to use the Quarantine Process if I get a New Ball Python from the same breeder I got the one I own now? I know its a stupid question I just wan't to make sure.

    Cause mine could have something or the new one could have something and I don't wan't to take chances. Also could anyone link me to some tips, or give me some?

    Yes you need to always Q-tine even from the same breeder, for your own safety.
    I keep my q-tine snakes in my rat room, then after q-tine they go into the snake room(ex-dining room).

    Quarantining is there for your pets safety . If you put your new snake in the same rack with your other pet and the new one gets sick, good chance the other will as well. It's a lot easier to control the outcome of something bad if u quarantine.

    IMO, I recommend it .
