I won't be taking her to the vet YET for two reasons , she doesn't seem ill or sick to me and I've already wasted hundreds of pounds cash on the snake, that I've only owned around a month! Due to the idiots that sell snakes in reptile shops failing to say what a royal actually needs and failing to mention the starter kit they sell you is a load of useless crap!
in the month I've had her I've bought three different vivs, various heating elements and temp probes/guns etc... You name it I've bought it, so after wiping my bank account clean I refuse to find more hundreds in cash to take her to the vet because she holds her head up! If anything this snake will go back to the shop she came from as she has cost me a small fortune and now after all that cost and best intentions now she maybe sick! I've had enough of all these forums with nothing but contradicting advise, what is a new owner to do, who should they listen to for advise, it's ridiculous!
My royal was sold to me at a reputable reptile shop, with a starter kit and heat mat that's all they need!
Really!! Now it seems I need specific temps on all areas of the floor, then I need specific air temps also, then the humidity needs to be this and that, then I can't house her in a viv, must be a rub etc etc etc etc.....
What is a newbie suppose to do, I wish I didn't care like most owners obviously don't , have a crappy glass tank with stick on thermometers! I go out and buy everything she could possibly need, my house looks like a reptile shop I'm not joking, so after all that she is now sick...... Well I give up!
