Ive brought three new royal which come soon. i was planning on putting them on their own shelf on my rub rack (3wide) lidded i read about qurantine. is this enough or would you move them away completly seperate room even. and how long for if thats the case. Obviously i will check them over on arrival
It's not quarantine if you put them in the same room as an existing collection.
The whole point is that they should be completely seperate from that, they need seperate feeding and cleaning equipment as well.
Some people say 1-3 mth seperation but all depends where u get them from. I've kept some separate for a few weeks that were shop bought or from an unknown source but some where I know the snake and the environment it came from I don't
I didn't have the space to keep new snakes in seperate rooms, my snakes were just just kept away from each other for a few weeks at different ends of the room they're in, 3 came from good reputable reptile shops and 1 from a well known breeder & my snakes are in perfect health.
