About two weeks ago my friend told me one of his snakes is sick. It regerged it's last meal and he said she was disoriented. Then I saw the snake this last sunday, she looks like she's tweekin on meth. When he picked her up she rolled her head and seemed to not be able to tell which way is up. She continued the alarming head movements when he placed her on the bed.

Now he's been telling me his heat pad shorted and she got heat stroke. I think this is BS and have been trying to get him to take his snake to the vet. Now she is a 2 year old high pink red tail, and he does have it housed with his 4 month old guyana. They have been housed since the first day he brought the guyana home. The guyana seems normal and is eating well, but the red tail hasn't eaten since it gerged 2 weeks ago.

And no this isn't me trying to use the "my friend" excuse, all 3 of my snakes are healthy He just "knows" more about snakes then I do, I'm new to the hobby but like to learn. So I need your help to convince him to do something besides nurse the thing.
