My corn snake hasn't eaten for about 6 weeks (which isn't too unusual as its winter and she usually slows down eating) and has shown to be tretened when i have gone close, so i have not tried to stress her out...
When i have gone to hold her today, her bottom - where the poo comes out is inflamed, it sort of hasn't gone in propperly after the last poo or something.
I'm not sure what to do and don't know if there are any decent vets in m area.
Please help

sounds like a vet job, could be scale rot, a burn, prolapse, tumour................. try looking up 'exotic' vets rather than 'reptile' vets as that should find more. keep us posted too. |
cornsnakes, ratsnakes, bullsnakes, boas and day geckos
Location:Leeds/York/Selby area |

if it is still out it could be a prolapse which you could make up a sugar paste and apply it to the area which will help until you get to the vets. |
