UPDATE:
The genetic stripe gave up the fight on Saturday and I found him lifeless soaking in his water dish
He seemed to be improving after finishing the course of oral baytril and was in blue...
The others are doing well except the 09 pastel female whose symptoms have actually gotten worse. We saw a different vet to get started on injections so I will post updates as time goes on. I'm holding onto the hope that this wasn't a lost cause and that even after the little guys passing, he was comfortable when he did...

Oh man I'm so sorry. Be comforted by the fact that for the remainder of his life he had a caring home.

I am sorry to hear he lost the fight. Comfort yourself with the fact you gave him a chance, which was more than he had before.
I am glad you are going the injection route. I know needles are scary, even if they aren't going into you, but I do feel injections are the best way to go with snakes.
I hope those still with you continue to improve, are any eating yet ?

There's a reason you got these snakes. You were their saving grace. You hit thelottery with the morphs lol but you're still doing a great thing by taking on the financial burden to get care for these snakes. I commend you on what your doing.

UPDATE:
After two rounds of antibiotics (oral and injections) 28 days of treatment copious vet bills and a heart wrenching few months full of ups and downs...
The Mojave female, lesser male(still wont take prey items) pastel het gs and YB het gs are the only survivors left....
But,
Drumroll please...The lil pastel het gs female took not one, not two, but three weaned rats today!
The YB het gs also took two weaned. I'm on cloud nine (with my fingers still crossed of course) that at least these two will pull through...

I'm glad there were some survivors and they seem to be doing much better. Thank you for the update.

These particular bowls will scratch the heck out of your snake's back scales. The ones made by Van Ness have smooth finger holds and edges, and won't do that. They're also pretty cheap, just a couple of bucks. They're a bit sturdier than the Walmart bowls, and easier to clean.
Feeding is really a great sign that they're on the mend, I'm glad they're starting to rally!

Wow, from eleven down to four. I don't know how you had the strength to do it, I really don't. I would have been a basket case after one or two, but to loose so many after fighting so hard.
Ok, take a deep breath Gale. On the other hand, the fact that a few of them are eating is wonderful! If they are eating they must be better. I hope these remaining ones continue to improve for you, and make this fight all worthwhile.
