The purpose of the quarantine is to give time for symptoms of illnesses to be identified before potentially introducing it to other snakes. If you're not watching the snakes for the symptoms to develop, you're not really doing anything with the quarantine.

Edit: well, technically you'd still avoid introducing anything that would kill within 90 days (or whatever your quarantine period is). Anything non-lethal, not so much.
Thank you for your input I will definitely keep that in mind! I do look out for abnormal behaviors in the snakes but I haven't taken them out during quarantine. I will keep this noted thanks.
