    Re: My BP questions/status

    Hi,

    Have you read the caresheet?

    I wouldn't try and feed him if his temp range is a flat 82f - I'd try and get closer to 86f tbh before considering it. It won't do any harm to wait till he sheds and moves back to his full time home.

    But flat ranges are best left to people who can really read the snakes body language and behaviour ( like the Barkers at VPI.com ) than people just starting out. Sorry if that sounds a bit mean but, honestly it is the truth.

    The very last thing you want is a regurge because of low temps at this stage.

    Repeat the P-A-Mite treatment in 30 days and then again in 30 days after that - this should eradicate the mites.

    And yes you can feed as normal during treatment once he is back in the correct environment.
