Are my balls in jeopardy!!!

landen8205 Mar 02, 2005 03:43 PM

well i've learned my lesson. Don't buy anything from petco. I got 3 hypo's from petco and they infected my whole colony. due to certain circumstances I am going back to ball pythons. what i need to know is can crypto be transmitted to my ball pythons. they are being housed in different locations in the house but I am in the process of building a new snake room. So are my balls in jeopardy?

crypto can be spread to snakes, but if your snakes never came in contact with the geckos (hopefully you're not that ignorant) they should be fine

crypto is alsi somthing you can not diagnose them with, only a vet can, the mojority of the time the geckos from there that get sick, are infested with worms, i suggest getting a fecal done on them, or a necropsy if they are already dead, and getting some fecals done on your pythons in a few weeks also

this is why quarantine is so important..
