Hi all,
I came home from college a week ago. My BP Apophis was acting a little off, we've had quite a few thunderstorms so I thought he was just stressed from all the rattling. I didn't start to notice signs as signs until a few days ago. I planned to take him to the vet but my Mom has all Covid-19 symptoms and is sick so we're quarantined to our house (no Vet). For the most part he appears fine, but he occasionally wheezes, has gunk on one of his nostrils, won't eat and is a tad more lethargic than usual. In addition to this, now he's got some weird coloring around his mouth and an open....sore? on his head. I'm terrified and don't know what to do, I don't think its rot and I'm thinking the scab thing is from him rubbing against something but I don't know for sure. My thought is he has a cold or an RI, but I don't know about the mouth stuff. I pulled down his bottom lip and didn't see any bubbles.... but I don't really know what I'm looking for. Advice and treatment and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Nat
