Snakes can be sick without showing symptoms for some time, which is why quarantine is necessary. As far as the thin bp in your picture, it is thin as far as bps go, but not unhealthily thin. Just try feeding more regularly if he'll take it to get him up to proper weight. I stopped buying snakes until I had a quarantine DIY rack made. You can make one cheap, I live in a two bedroom apartment also, there's really no excuse.
I'm not trying to make excuses, until now I have not really understood where to draw the line as to when my collection became established. I have plans to setup my spare room as a quarantine room once my collection becomes established. What I was trying to say was that there is no way I could possibly quarantine each new addition in a separate room.
