Today is exactly 2 years form when I brought Bazilishka ( then known as Bazilishek ) home - and with it , 2 years of snake keeping.
In that time, she went from about 37 cm and under 13 g:
one year later: 74 cm and 105g:
to 105 cm and 371 g today - 2 years with me:
That's older picture, she's busy digesting at the moment :-)
Happy bring home day, Baz!

Firstly, I am SO pleased that she has tested clear and so did Little T  . I know how stressful it was for you, especially dosing her yourself....but you did it and she's better  . I'm glad that her breathing is ok after her breathing in some of the dose....and love the fact she made her feelings clear to you by blowing in your ear  !
She really is gorgeous and it's so interesting seeing the changes from when you for her til now. Her colours have really lightened and become stronger. I know what I'm trying to say but struggling to say it and therefore am probably not making much sense....serious brain fog this morning  . I know what I can say that will make sense.....she is beautiful and it's lovely seeing her so healthy .

It wasn't a routine test, it was because she'd produced a very strange poop - there were strange little white globules in it ( not urates )- they looked like prawns, and I was worried she had parasites. She originally came from a garden centre, where they kept several of them together, and before that, from a dealer - so it would have been possible, that she could have carried something all this time. She was positive for flagellates, so the vet prescribed a treatment. There's a thread about it in the Health section.
I had my other snake's poop tested as well, mainly because I wanted to be sure - and because he poops about 3 - 4 times after each meal, and it stinks - but he's completely clear of any parasites, which is nice to know. |

Thank you, everyone. I'm really happy, especially as she has just had her final poop test, and is totally free of any parasites. Little T tested clear straight away, which was a relief, as I half expected the vets to find something in his sample - he can poop for England - and it stinks :-0
Please enlighten me;Why routinely test for parasites? was she from a bad environment?
Our vet has never suggested we do this and 3 of ours were rescues.They all seem to be doing good-we had one with a tail injury ( retained shed)
and he's healed great. |

Bazilishka did manage to breathe some of the wormer in during the last dosing, so I've been checking her breathing a lot. Checked her yesterday before feeding, and the little monkey scared me to death, by going a full on PFFFT! straight in my ear! :-) She got angry at me trying to listen to her breathing, and sticking her head almost in my ear! |
