I got my little guy 2 weeks ago
He was a bit pissy and had a stuck shed so I didn't handle him much but I did feed him. Last week when I finally really looked him over I found brown areas on his belly. I took him to the vet who said by looking at the scrape on the slide it was a mild case of scale rot. I'm on day 5 of betadine soaks answer silver sulfadiazine cream. Today it's not looking better and maybe even a little worse. She said she didn't think it was bad enough for antibiotics since the white cell count wasn't high. I'm thinking about a second opinion? Does this sound right? I'm a new snake mom so... His temps are at an ambient 84, waiting on thermostat to use the uth, and humidity is at about 60. Per the vets advice he's on paper towels at the moment. He is eating just fine. And if someone could please tell me how to post pictures I will. Thanks!
