    It's not quite a lock. He's looking for the right position, though.

    BTW: did you quarentine your new addition? Was this the female you were talking about in one of your other threads?

    No this ain't the same one. This one is from a local breeder. I personally know the guy. This one is a bit bigger than the female I got. Actually going to look at his new banana when he gets it today.

    You really should quarantine all your new additions. the females grow follicles over time so she'll probably still be ready when she gets out of quarantine.

    You are supposed to quarantine for a MINIMUM of 3 months. Most people like to do 6, 9 or 12 months. It's good practice because if one snakes has a disease or parasite, then they don't give it to the rest of your animals.

    Not a lock. And x2 for QT.


    This is what a lock looks like for future references since you haven't seen one.

    Yeah not quite a lock, but I'm sure it will happen soon. You already have plenty of comments about quarantining so I'll leave it at that, no need to beat a dead horse
