My friend wants to get rid of his what he thinks is a female BP and he asked if I was interested, of course I said yes, but I asked y he wanted to get rid of her and he said that a few weeks ago his whole gecko collection got wiped out by some kind of virus. He also said that the other lizards and snakes he has seemed to be doing fine. Is there any connection between parasites of lizards effecting BP's or other boids ?
