I couldn't stop laughing when he first suggested a way to keep the cream on her, buy non-lubricated condoms and cut the tip off, then tape the condom to itself it keep it snug-like on her, sound ridiculous but it totally works! Then after I told the vet about how I want to be a vet tech, he offered to let me shadow the only technician who will handle exotics, and I get to sit in on two surgeries in the morning :D, so freaking sweet! :banana:
WOW....that is really cool for you! And the condom thing is a hoot! I'm really, really pleased things are turning out well and your little scalekid is gonna be just fine!

Oh yay...I'm glad to hear it's not as bad as I know all of us were fearing - and congrats on getting to shadow the exotics tech!! Let us know about the surgeries if you get a chance!!
Re: Burn or Scale rot? Something else?
Oh so glad to hear the snake will be okay and you get this wonderful experience of shadowing. What a nifty idea to protect a tender belly or keep meds from being wiped off immediately (don't quite know how I'm ever going to explain this one to my kids so I'll just hope it never happens LOL).
