    Rescuing 2 Very Sick Ball Pythons

    The title says it all. I find these videos from Snake Discovery to be so educational. Enjoy.

    Excellent video. Tree is such a pretty fellow- so sweet to see his whole 6 month story from rescue to adoption. I have dealt with snakes that had skin sloughing like that, it's just awful.
    I never thought of using puppy pads for quarantine snake housing where regular substrate would be detrimental to skin healing. Great idea.

    I found the story of the ball python with mouth rot revealing. I had always imagined that abandoned ball pythons suffered, but actually seeing what becomes of them hit me down deep.

    Wild animals have a hard life as it is, & pets of any kind should never be abandoned. It's unfair to them, & can also harm native wildlife by carrying pathogens they've had no exposure to.
