Recently i purchesed 4 ball pythons from my rep dealer.
Not knowing at the time they were wild caught.
I like to let my new snakes sit for 2 weeks before I start to handle. After the wait period I noticed some ticks and a few mites. Not a big deal but was not happy. I called the dealer thats when I found they were wild caught. I treated the snakes with a mite and tick spray and a week later all is good. I thought. I came in last week and saw one dead in water bowl "up side down". ok could have drowned. I was mad but was not end of the world. They still have not eaten yet which I know is common as they are wild caught. But yesterday when attemping to feed again I noticed on one snake has a brownish type spot on the tip of the nose. Kinda looks like it might be sheeding but I dont think so.
Please help beofre i make the trip to the vet.
