Most Expensive BP Vet Bill?

[satomi325]

I took my 3 month old baby BP for his first vet exam yesterday, mainly because he had a rectal prolapse that retracted back in by itself (I helped to push the last bit of remaining tissue back in). He also had mites and was a bit small.

I paid:
$84 for initial exam
$48 fecal exam
$40 ivomec injection
$15 panacur oral meds

For a total of $210 after taxes I do admit I felt gouged for that price but in the end, I just want my baby to be healthy. He was the closest vet that could see him at the time I was available because I had exams in the morning.

People take their cats and dogs for yearly exams and it doesn't make sense to me that reptile owners don't take their snakes which live twice as long as cats/dogs.

What is the average/most expensive BP vet bill you've ever paid?

My most expensive BP bill was about the same as yours. Except it was a rescue with a respiratory infection that needed a culture and antibiotics.
My initial exam was $60 and that's on the higher spectrum of exam prices for exotics. Your fecal exam is pretty high in my opinion too. It usually runs $10-15. I go the a vet school to get my animals treated and they tend to be more expensive than private practices. When I went to a private practice for the same treatment(minus the culture) with a different pair of rescues, it ran about $70 total including exam and antibiotics for two snakes.
