Egg Aspiration

Posted this on the King Snake forum, thought I'd post it here also. Jessica did a great job with the video and with her snake! I believe the snake has passed all the retained eggs and is doing fine.

Good stuff. Great care and professionalism toward the proceedure. Wish i would have seen this 2 years ago after a vet butchered my female.

To bad on the other forum no one plays nice.

At least all the jerks are gathered together in one plcae, lol! I never really see that kind of attitude here on this forum. Or any other forum I frequent for that matter.

Doug I've seen that also! I even did that to a snow corn years ago. I wish I had seen this video first! The anticeptic can be purchased at Reptile Basics, she said, and the Syringe should be available at feed stores that cater to Horse owners. Tractor Supply Company might have them, also. I am going to try to locate some, to have them on hand, just in case. Hopefully I never have to use them.
