This is my new RTB, shes a female and I was told shes about 4-5 years old.
I'm not exactly sure what type of boa she is, I was told she was a Central RTB by her previous owners and someone else told me she was a Nicaraguan.
She had been living with an RI and mites in her previous home, she wasn't in good shape. I was able to take her to an exotics vet 2 weeks after I got her, and shes on injected antibiotics for the next 2 weeks, then she goes back for a second check up.. shes already doing better though! She ate her first meal for me yesterday
I've been soaking her for the RI and the mites and cleaning the cage every day, treating it every 3 days with reptile relief, it seems to be working pretty well.
I'm glad I was able to get her the care she needed, everyone at the vets office really loves her.. shes like a big, long, legless, puppy dog. They even took pictures of her for their new office brochure.
I hope after these mites clear up she can be moved back into my room and we won't have anymore problems! Shes a very nice snake!
