Okay, some ***hole poured alcohol into two tubs of my snake rack when I wasn't there(a rms friend) and I didn't find it until this morning. Both snakes homes reaked of the whiskey that was poured in and the entire enclosure soaked. The one female hypo was visibly intoxicated and couldn't support her body the other male hypo seemed to be okay. After a few quick emails to breeders I was advised to go to the vet asap that alcohol is extremely toxic to snakes. I found an emergency vet and took both in where they are now in a heated oxygen chamber with some sort of iv solutions going to both. The bill before the specialist even looked at either snake was $300. I wanted to know more about alcohol and snakes. I cannot find a single website that talks about what goes on in the body of the snake when it is introduced to alochol. This happened this morning and I am pretty devastated and as of now I don't know what the outcome of my 1.1 hypos will be. Any knowledge what so ever is appreciated. My email is mgoblue347@gmail.com
