Ok thanks, I've got a book on that I should read...
What book is that if you don't mind me asking?

"Keeping Australian Pythons in Captivity" by Adam Elliot. It has a whole chapter on snake illnesses, including the ones mentioned. On an experienced breeders perspective, I don't know where it sits, but it's helped me.What book is that if you don't mind me asking?
I'd be bitchin about it to if it was me. I'm not sure how, but you should spread the word on the unreliability.Update: The new snake is infested with mites. I can see them crawling all her, and all through the container. Boy am I ******.
So obviously tomorrow I'll be going back and getting my money back, then going elsewhere. I've caught a few as evidence, in case they're hesitant to believe me, because yesterday I was assured that they're utterly vigilant with mites.
I'll have to get my beardie checked now as well, just to be sure.
These people have such a good reputation in my area, they're the go to for all things reptiles here. I'm amazed that they could be so clueless to this issue.

At least you're making a decent point. But note that Pirate didn't take advantage of the buyer as, for what I hope is the last time, the buyer knew what he was getting into...
They're a breeder, not a business.
I'm in Canberra.
I went and saw them today with the snake, expecting a refund, and instead they gave me mite spray with instructions to use it.
Do you think I should call them up and ask about a refund? I don't really want to have to deal with this problem myself, when I feel it should be their responsibility. Especially if the snake may have already contracted the virus from the mites that I suspect the last one had.
