    Respiratory Infections will go through a collection of snakes like wild fire whether you wash your hands or not. The same with Parasites... so back to the question about them being transferable between species. A example of parasites can be mites. A snake mite is a snake mite as a wood mite or animal mite will not effect the snake. Same goes with the prey I breed to feed my snakes, most of their parasites will not effect the snakes...

    So Im really looking for a Keeper of both that might have some experience or info I can read up on. I can guess presume but that wont do any of us any good hahaha.
