She got her from a FB auction last August, and the original seller hasn't responded to any of my attempts to contact him, so heck if I know how long he had her for before that or how long this has been going on for the poor kid.

Poor thing - you'll probably never know, but I hope she's starting to get better now!

Me too. I don't know how long it takes to tell if the antibiotics are working. I might just try doing the f10 mist treatment on Saturday to hit it on a second front provided she's all done shedding then.

I feel like this could be done even cheaper by attaching some tubing to a humidifier. I did that once when I was sick, except I taped a coke bottle to the end so I could hit it like a bong lol.
