Hello everyone,
I went to an Exotic Pet Amnesty Day to adapt my first BP. I chose a gorgeous female Lesser Platinum with a past medical condition. The Vet at the event diagnosed her with a past vent infarction and a bunch of scar tissue that will keep her from breeding. I'm fine with not breeding her but I can't find any information on what troubles I will need to look out for with the scar tissue next to the vent. Any info will be appreciated. Another concern is she is 53 inches long and weighs 1550 grams. I read on another post on the forum that all snakes are different and as long as they don't have a triangle shape to there bodies they are healthy. She seems round enough to me but at the same time she looks thin. Any thoughts? Lastly, I've been feeding her live small rats. She consumes them and excretes them just fine but I don't see a lump in her during the digestive process. I believe I need to move up to medium rats, second opinions?
This is the scar tissue.
Just an overall picture.
