IMO your choices are not very smart at this moment.

I'll order a bigger tote (6' long) on the 7th
And I'm not concerned about IBD at this point. The vet are trustworthy, imo, and as far as I know she's just deprived of exercise. I can post a video of her if you'd like to diagnose her yourself. If you suspect IBD, I will not get anymore snakes.

I am still concerned about it obviously because it's serious but I don't think she has it.

whatever... do what you want.. if you endanger your own snakes that's not my problem.. you you shouldn't be acquiring them so fast either or you'll surely bring something that you missed.. either way. you can buy a tote that will fit your boa for about less than 20 bucks and it would still be better than that small tote you have her in.

1. If you know what IBD symptoms look like, I'll upload the videos... You choose
2. Re read my last post...
Pay day = Money.
Money = Tote.

Can you upload the videos?

you seem to be missing the point... even if your snake doesn't have IBD you are still risking your whole collection at this point by purchasing shakes so fast... you could very well miss something and put your entire collection in danger. that is the point of quarantine. and NO i don't know what IBD looks like only know the symptoms and if you said she doesn't do it all the time then your "normal" video will be of no help for a diagnosis. either way you should be waiting a whole lot longer than you have to introduce another snake into your collections.. a lot of illnesses can arise later rather then sooner.

and about your "last post" you said you would order one thats why i said you could get a tote.. would be faster than ordering one..

No stores within 20 miles (or farther) sell totes big enough for a 7-8' red tail to feel comfortable in.

How does getting snakes fast effect anything? If I buy two snakes in ten years, I could still miss something and risk my collection. You take that risk every single time you buy any snake.
