I and probably many others, really appreciate the intelligent, highly informative and civil discussion in this thread. It definitely demonstrates the best of what public forums can offer.

Doug, Randy, Bill, and Mike help put the 'Q' in quality here and it's these and other fair minded blokes who bring developing keepers like me here.

So, I've initiated the treatment regimen with a dose of 60mg Flagyl. The plan is to follow Doug's recommendation of one dose at 50mg/kg, wait 12-14 days, then feed small low roughage meal. ..e.g, fuzzy rat.

The snake is currently 1275gms. His max is 1500gms. He is just about exactly 72" tip to tip and appears and responds healthfully at this weight.

For any following, I will start a new thread to log the treatment and outcome.

Brad
