Some people rave about it I'm Still not convinced I've only used reptiboost
A few time and didn't think it helped either
I may try poweraide If I need to next time

I keep this in my snake medicine chest -
http://www.surreypetsupplies.co.uk/search.php?mode=search&page=1
as first aid in case of dehydration/severe non-feeding/debility etc - and hope never to have to use it. Imo it's better than Powerade - although if you've got an exhausted/dehydrated snake, powerade's better than nothing as an emergency measure.
I've never heard of it enhancing their colours though. |

Cool it was just something I heard and wondered if its true especially as one of mine has not eaten in a while, altho i weighed him last night and i think he has put weight on, unfotunatly my records are nowhere to be seen so im just remembering the best I can, I won't start to worry till he begins to lose weight
And the colour thing was for a brb I need to start to use the preview option before I submit my posts

well i tried this at the begining of the week and all it done was turned my beutiful albino a shade of blue on parts, not overly impressed and still not eating, i think i should start to follow my own advive and stop worrying about it tioll his weights start to drop,
now to find a way to get his colour to normal, im hoping a bath may do the trick but i may have to wait for him to shed as i didnt realise to last nisht that it had happened |

That exactly. The blue will fade, I'd just make sure its all rinsed off and the snake isn't sticky as that will be a breeding ground for bacteria.
While they aren't feeding the best thing you can do is keep them somewhere quiet, dark and just leave them alone, check them over once a week and change their water every day to 2 days. |
