Re: Constipated boa
You might pick up some TUCKS...  If you know what that is...
You haven't been feeding him too many popcorn mice have you.

Re: Constipated boa
I really don't know what could cause that, unless he ingested some of the ground cover. Sounds like VET time...

Re: Constipated boa
He could have been dehydrated. I would say if it looks VERY irritated take him to the vet otherwise watch him and maybe put him on paper towels as bedding until it heals so it doesn't get irritated more by the bedding in his cage.

America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom. – John Quincy Adams (1821)

You mean hopper snacks are bad? The horror. What would Huggy Bear do without his hopper snacks?
