Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the most often isolated bacteria in the oral cavity and glottis in captive-bred pet snakes with respiratory tract infections (RTI) from the Boidae and Pythonidae families in Bulgaria. Swab samples from 29 snakes with clinically presented respiratory disease symptoms were collected. Cultures in different selective and differentiating media were prepared.
