2019 Snek Acquisition Plan

[WhompingWillow]

...@craigafrechette i am here to eat crow.

so i bought two new babies at the same show, but one has mites. yes, mites. despite what i thought was a "careful eye" or better knowledge, i could not have noticed them and i only noticed after the Bamboo shed.

@craigafrechette i was WRONG. both animals should have been QT'd separately since i COULD have made the space.

i will be posting a thread aaaaallllll about this, but i WISH i QT'd these babies separately as now i have to treat both babies as having full-blown mites and subject them both to treatment.

yay, mites!!!

Aw, I'm sorry to hear this. Mites suck. We picked up the critters somewhere and they slowly spread to a few tanks, so we just finished several rounds of treatment. You're a knowledgable keeper, so I'm sure you have a plan of attack. I had a lot of luck with the diluted Nix method, and now that we're 30+ days without a mite sighting, I'm knocking on wood that we got the little buggars, eggs and all. I chose that over PAM due to the fact that it can be sprayed on the snakes and their enclosures. Message me if you want any details on it.
