    Thanks to this forum...

    Hi folks,
    I believe I had brought up the latest burmese python rescues,
    (two albinos) in another thread.
    Just wanted to update you a bit.
    The smaller one is doing great.
    The larger one on the other hand, who has been struggling with a resperatory infection, has had a bad reaction to the enroflaxyn he/ she has been on. We are trying doxy, and she / he is also on flagyl.
    Here are a few pics for you.
    (really bad ones, sorry)
    Try and see if you can look at her eyes. They are looking in two different directions from the bad reaction.

    Here is a sore from where the previose owners had been giving her injections in the same spot. (very sore area):


    And the little one, just saying hi:


    Thanks

    Poor thing! Must be heartbreaking to watch them struggle so! I hope the new meds help him take advantage of all the TLC you've been giving, and turn him into the big, healthy giant he was born to be!

    Life is like a game of poker. You can play each hand to the best of your ability but you are still going to run into a bad beat from time to time. What matters is how you handle it. Do you go on tilt or can you maintain your composure & rebuild your stack?

    sad update to give you guys
    The large burm passed away this past week. In my opinion he is so much better off. He was very damaged from the overdosing of medication previosly and may never have recoverd fully.
    The medium sized burm that came in from the same household is doing fine, eats great! But is very snotty. So she is a handfull.
    But I wanted to let you guys know
    Thanks

    Thanks for the update Rusty. That's so sad that the poor snake had to suffer, but he won't be suffering any more at least.
