If someone loaned me a boa with mites I'd be pissed. IMO not worth the trouble and seriously not worth sending any babies the other persons way.

What if either you were not that careful with quarantine, had not noticed them or some other way had one or more manage to get into your collection.


BTW, speaking of mites Nick....... Your boy was clean as a whistle, not one single sign of mites!!! You are exactly the sort of keeper I enjoy doing breeding loans with!!!
