I was just wanting to hear everyone's opinion on Quarantine. It seems like everyone has their own way of doing it as far as what is right and wrong.
I currently have a SHTCTB female in QT that I plan on adding in with my other female when her stay in solitary is up. She is set up in a spare bedroom (my other tanks are in my bedroom) and will spend 90 days by herself. I have taken her to a vet already and so far has shown a clean bill of health with no parasites in the fecal. (My other Leos and Beardie, also have clean vet checks and fecals as of their last check a few months ago.)
For her quarantine I have her in a 10 gallon (with decor) that had been sanitized with a light bleach solution, and throughly rinsed and dried. I make sure that (as always) I was my hands well for 20 seconds after handling any of my reptiles to stop any disease spread.
How does everyone else handle a quarantine period?
