    Default Your opinion please

    Ok so i've found myself in a bot of a dilemma.

    I recently bought a new mack snow leo who I have set up in quarantine. My problem is that I start my work placement in just over two weeks time so won't be able to keep an eye on her during the week to check for illness etc. Currently she is of good weight (52 g), eating well on locx, mealies and the weekly waxie. She is also passing solid stools every couple of days, all signs pointing in the right direction me thinks.

    So my thoughts are should I just take her to the vets and get feacals etc done so I know straight away if something is wrong. Also if she is given the all clear can I put her in with the rest of my collection or will it be best to still go through quarantine until I finish my placement.

    What are your thoughts

    Thanks
    Jo

    sounds safe to me to be honest. would be money spent without need at vets.

    Sounds to me that it should be ok Jo. It's doing it's normal everyday functions without any problems, so imo you'd be wasting your hard earned money taking him to the vets, he should be fine.

    Agree, he should be fine. All the vitals seem ok.
    I would however continue with the quarantine just in case... rather safe than sorry, and won't cost you :o)
