Just a quick one, I have asked this on the king forum but its alittle busier here so you guys might be able to help with the following:

Just found out that apparently she escaped in the summer for two weeks into the wild (was found hiding out looking rather chubby in a neighbours garden shed) will this mean that she will have a very high chance of mites (do they exist in the UK wild)?? Current owners dont really know what I am going on about

Think I might treat her as if she does when we get her just in case. So its paper towel substrate, luke warm baths and olive oil rubs. With f10 the viv daily, am I correct?

Or worrying over nothing???

Cheers
Sean

Just keep an eye on her scales / behaviour and check if you see any sign of mites. If not, she should be grand. Just make sure you keep checking her general health as well, as wild prey might have internal parasites that she could have picked up when eating them.

I think the best thing we can do when we get here is to give her a good check over and go from there.

I have a habit of over thinking everything and then worring myself half to death lol

Other news got a completion date on my house 21st of December
was really hoping we would be in earlier than that
