Nope not cost-wise, we've already got a quote and seems reasonable ($30 for check-up, $20 for sexing). We figure that's reasonable all in all from a good clinic.

Fecal sample (geesh first the kids, then the cats, now I gotta take a bag o snake poop with me and why do I just KNOW this will be my job and not Mike's LOL). Will try to take a fecal sample but if dear lil Punkin doesn't do it's thing (kids, cats, snakes...no one poops when the doctor says so and I end up being the wierdo with the plastic bag and a hopeful look in my eye!) I will make sure and send the first fecal in to the vet when it arrives.

Thanks as always for the advice.
