    The rescues

    Here they are! The sevin dust has done WONDERS with their mites, as far as we can tell one is mite free already( although i am still dusting their newspaper to make sure that all the eggs are dieing and because she can still get them from the others) We attemped feeding last night with no takers, so i just added four rats to my breeding project They are still all skinny but i didnt expect them to eat anyways. The blind one with RI has gone to a vet and the vet will be keeping her as a pet once she is problem free, which is sorta a relief for me because know i know that she is getting the best care someone can give her.
    Here they are, all are around four feet long exept for the extra skinny one.

    They were all getting baths at the time.








    Im not really sure which one is which in the pictures, i took these a few days ago.

    Thanks for looking

    Come here little guy. You're awfully cute and fluffy but unfortunately for you, you're made of meat

    Re: The rescues

    Have you had a chance to order PAM? It really makes me nervous that you're still using Sevin Dust. You've heard from a couple of vet techs on here that it's toxic and cause neurological disorders... you can order PAM from a lot of online reptile stores and get it overnighted, and I feel like you've had plenty of time...

    Hope they keep improving!

    Re: The rescues

    I agree with Lynn, the sevin dust makes me really nervous too. I just ordered another can of Provent-A-Mite on Friday because I just finished up a can I bought two years ago, and it will be here on Monday.

    They're pretty though!

    It doesn't even sound like it's working that well, honestly. Run down to your nearest vet, or any decent pet supply store, and pick up a bottle of Frontline...you'll have no mites at all by the following morning, and it's sooooo much safer.

    Sevin dust scares the snot out of me....
