    It's Ceftazimine that my vet prescribes. It has worked pretty well for me.

    Update: The vet told me if there is no improvement within a week she is going to try another antibiotic. The clown is by far the worst of all of them. He is being treated with. 3 CC of oral baytril daily but isn't improving yet, the outlook on him is pretty bleak...but I'm rooting for him.
    The snakes were in sterilite containers marked with their morph. Expample: orangeghosthcarF'10

    I'm sorry to hear how bad they are doing. You should suggest to your vet to take cultures to save some time and prescribe the appropriate antibiotic from there...you should also look into some diluted F-10 in a fogger, I've heard it really makes a difference if used with the proper antibiotic. I'm rooting for all of them! :tears:

    Did your vet bother with a culture on the clown, or is she just going down the list of antibiotic options? Different meds treat for different bacteria (stating the obvious). During the week that you're waiting to see if Baytril works, you could already have the results back and know with certainty what to treat him with.

    I'm sorry to hear the clown isn't doing better, hopefully he'll still pull through. :please:

    No she did not do cultures on any of them she just prescribed baytril 30mg orally and betidine *sp? For the bacterial infections caused by the decaying rat carcasses and for the mouthrot on the g stripe.
    I also set up the f-10 fogger this morning. Their hotspots are sitting at 92-93 with an ambient in the high 70s. The vet also recommended trying to feed...I would think this would add to their stress so I'm gonna wait a few more days before attempting to offer rats.
    I am also soaking 2x a day for about 10 min to help rehydrate them...
    Am I missing anything, is there anything else I should be doing?
    BTW: the woman texted me and asked of she could get the tubs back...lol
