    At least you have options within the same state and within an hour drive for vets. The only registered reptile vet near me is in Alabama somewhere around 2 hours away if I remember correctly. Teaching 4 college classes a semester leaves very little time to make 4hr round trips to vets that possibly could cancel your appointment 15 minutes before you’re supposed to show up because the doctor is apparently scared of the size of your snake. Which I know isn’t an excuse for not visiting a vet, hence the off hand comment a while back about almost thinking to rehome her

    You need a new vet. Knd of funny how an exotic vet is scared to see a large constrictor. When i was about to pull the trigger on a gila monster, i called my vet and she said she would be fine seeing gilas or beaded lizards. She said she doesnt seem that often as she doesnt have many of them as patients. She also likes big constrictors. Her and the staff loved to see Rosey. Guess they dont see many large constrictors as patients. Mostly stuff like geckos, ball pythons, bearded dragons, iguanas, small boas and the like. I told her i got a retic i will be bringing in one day for a check up and they were excited lol.

    And maybe Phyllis just needs bigger food. Heck at this point, I'd probably just drink myself into a stupor and call it a day. You definitely are getting a workout with Phyllis. Caesar has been a church mouse the past few days. During the day, sleeping like an angel in his hide and during the night, just stretching out and maybe looking outside here and there.
