Beautiful snake.
Please update after a couple good sheds. That snake doesn't know how lucky she/he is
I used to rescue snakes, one of them was a 4500 gr !!!! Ball Python female. Kept in a cold 10 gallon tank with an empty water dish. She had a really bad RI, boy, the noises that came out of her !!!!
With the help of a great vet I got her healthy again and she dropped 6 huge eggs, which was a big surprise. One egg went bad, the other 5 had huge hatchlings inside. They ranged from 89 gr. to 112 gr. out of the egg.
Also rescued a male that had really light colors , very desertish looking. He had internal parasites as well as an RI. Had to be treated with shots as well as oral meds. He was really difficult to get feeding regularly, but eventually he did and found a good home.
Rescuing is very rewarding, the only thing I would caution about is a good quarantine protocol. Seems like you got that covered
