Sad Day

Something that works great as a cleaner also is Chlorhexidine, also called Novalsan. Its the same stuff vets use for exam tables and such. Any farm/feed store should have it as its used as an oral rinse and antiseptic. You can order it online as well but I just buy the 16 ounce concentrated bottles from Bothell Feed on Bothell Everett highway and then use an empty 1 gallon milk jar cleaned out and mix in 3-4 capfuls to that gallon of water. Then I put it in a spray bottle and refill as needed and use it to clean all my snake and lizard tables, utensils, water bowls, cages and spray it on my hands inbetween handlings. You can also use F-10SC too but you have to order that stuff from Amazon, Reptile basics, Bean Farm but its basically the same type of disinfectant for gram positive and negative germs.

The plus side to both Chlorhexidine and F-10SC is a little bit in there wont hurt them and it builds a barrier to germs. Just make sure the F-10SC is not the F-10SCXD stuff as that stuff needs to be rinsed all the way.

Nice looking cage btw. Mine aren't that fancy lol. My baby sunglow has a PVC climbing branch in her cage, aspen floor, an RBI hide on each side, her water bowl and a 6' silk vine I stuck to the sides of the cage with suction cups from Home Depot. My BPs cage is aspen floor, 2 RBI hides and a water bowl lol and big BCI is aspen floor, a water bowl and a single hide on the cool side but she gets to come out daily so shes happy lol.

I like the setup. However I would try to not alter anything else or handle maybe until the little lad eats

I also use Chlorhexidine as a cleaner. I bought the concentrated gallon jug (can't remember if I got it from reptile basics or amazon) and I bought a pump top for it from reptile basics. The top screws onto the gallon jug and 1 pump gives you enough cleaner to mix up a gallon of spray. I mix it and then put it in an industrial type hand spray bottle. A couple things to keep in mind about this cleaner thought: 1. If it comes into contact with biological matter (i.e. poop) it nullifies it. 2. You have to mix up a fresh solution about once a week as it looses it's effectiveness.

I just make sure that I remove any fecal matter or shed, etc. from the tubs first (wipe them out with a paper towel or clean with water / soap if it's stuck on) then spray down well with the Chlorhexidine and let sit to dry for a while. I use it in tubs, cages, on perches, and in water bowls / on hides. Great stuff!
