I hate fungi!
Mushrooms are taking over the world and are nearly has bad as cats! Poor snake! It has my sympathies!
You'll have to cheer him up by buying him some plastic ones. I saw some nice fake plants in Dunelm Mill yesterday. Cheap too.
I went in for some drift wood because someone on here said they had got some from there, but I didn't find any. Going back this week for some of the plastic plants though. You can get some nice ferny ones for about 99p! |

They had some fake ivy and one other type in vines when we went.
I took a liking to these big fern like leaves that had bendable stems. Going to treat Cornelius and Casper to some this week |

Mouth rot is a common complaint in snakes, so I'm sure they'll have something to sort him out.

Just been to Dunelm Mill
Here are my bargains:
The cheese plant type ones were 69p
and the ivy type one was only 59p
Bargains! There were loads of other types, but I liked these best. |

Good job you noticed it quick then!
Bet you're relieved aren't you?
What kind of anti-biotics did they give you? Do you put them in water or is it fun and games with a syringe?
