Re: Blister Disease
Pretty horrific I know... pretty terrible situation on that last one. Hopefully these pics and any information people can share will help some snakes out there.

Re: Blister Disease
The temps are being worked on, going to see a good herp vet would include two rounds of air cargo shipping off island and back... it isn't going to happen.

If getting to a vet is physically impossible...I wonder if you could find one that would be willing to work with you over the phone? (You could e-mail him pics, maybe?) It really seems like something that needs a vet's attention and probably some antibiotic treatment.

Re: Blister Disease
Thanks for the advice Judy... I have tried contacting numerous vets from Canada and the US and as yet (weeks) not heard anything back. Certainly if his condition stops improving or worsens a redoubled effort is called for.
The polysporin ointment has several antibiotic ingredients, and have greatly improved his appearance. My question regarding his bleaching colour was hinting at the possibility of a systemic infection... and still waiting to hear from anyone with experience on that. Otherwise, a topical ointment like polysporin and improved husbandry should be the cure.
