My new Bredli

Yey for quarentine. I think Evelyn might have mites and that is why she is soaking. I have tried looking on her but she does not hold still so i checked her water bowel. I saw little black dots in the water so i take it that those are the mites. I read that they look like little flakes of pepper.

I go to work tomorrow so i plan on putting a larger water bowel in with her to make it easy for her to soak til i get home and can clean. I need to order some pam too.

Cleaned Evelyn's home today to help with the mites. Found alot on the outside of her home on the card table that the enclosure sits on, kinda weird. That makes me wonder if the tank was the "infected" that brought the mites home. I had a feeling though that coming from a large event such as firexpo i would get my first case of mites.

Evelyn got an olive oil tx and a bath while her home was bleached and then washed with dawn and hot water. Now we have super quarantine mode going on. Still waiting on the pam to arrive in the mail.

She has had a rough day and has actually went in her hide after roaming for a bit.

I'm sure she will come through fine. Mites sick but it's nothing you can't beat. Good luck!

She looks great. Have you tried provent a mite. It works great for enclosures. Just follow the directions on the can. I use it on a monthly basis as a preventive for my collection.

I wish i would have got a pic of her last night after this one was taken. She was really lounged out with her tail hanging down, part of her body under the heat lamp, and her head and neck stretched out like she is in the pic, lol.

Yea my can arrived in the mail the other day. I had already fed her the same day so i had to wait to use it when i got home from work. So Yesterday when i made it home from work, i changed her paper towels with ones that i had treated with pam. I also sprayed some on the table that her cage sits on since i found mites on it as well.

Before I got Evelyn situated, i cleaned my bp's enclosure and I sprayed some for preventive measures. So far basic quarantine measures have kept the mites away from my bp and brooks king. Now that i have some pam, i will use it for prevention as well.

Very nice she is lookin awesome

Here are 3 furniture pieces i have found and one will be come a enclosure for Evelyn. DIY time.

In other news i believe i have won the battle with the mites. I have not seen any dead ones lately on the paper towels. However she has not been perching like normal and has been in her hide. Also she would normally do her buisness a day or 2 after earing but now she is holding it in for some reason.
Temps and all are good.

" Hey, what are you doing? How about a rat?"
Mites are long gone and Evelyn is doing well. Most of the time she is hanging out on her bars.
