Well I took the boa we rescued into the vet. We have called her "cricket" as I originally went in to buy some crickets and ended up with a sick 6 foot boa. He looked her over and gave her a shot of batril. He said she needs 4 more every other day. He thinks she is in the middle of an infection. I am most worried about the belly infection as he said it is a sign that there may be a bacterial infection that has spread through the blood. I hope we can fix her up. I am new to snake ailments as mine are all healthy. I would appreciate anyone's opinion or experience. I have also included a few other pictures of this sick but otherwise beauty.
Please respond.
Travis
