It seems like salmonella is some kind of disease that remains passive in a snake and waits for its system to be stressed to pop out... well that scares the /%"/$ out of me!! My ETB is WC and i just had a fecal analysis done, which seems to be negative: it doesnt have parasites... Am i right to worry about salmonella? My vet told me many snakes have salmonella and it never really shows up until it kills the animal!!! What do you guys think about it? Have some of you already dealt with this disease? The only person i know who had salmonella problems lost his GTPs to it...
