    Thank you.

    Here are some links to different reptile vets around the US and Canada. I think there are also some international vets on a few of them.

    See if you can find one nearby there.

    More refined to your area, try giving a few of them a call and see if they do reptiles.

    If they are an "Animal Hospital", they should be open 24hrs. It's 11:30, so most vets won't be open. If the white light lamp wasn't just for the photo, I'd take it down. It can overheat the BP and cause even more problems. Until your snake gets better, I'd also recommend not trying to feed, as it can make it harder to get them started in the long run. Also, the snake shouldn't be having a first shed problem, as it should have shed before a couple of weeks after hatching.
