His temps and humidity are good!

The Amikacin is what they gave him! The shot they gave him was about 3 inches down from his head.

Thanks for the help everyone!!
hey rebecca, its not really ever worth a try having pet store employees practice vererinary proceedures on any animal because the jobs qualifications between them are just slightly different... you know?

im glad you decided to take your bp to a professional where he can actually start receiving proper treatment and walk the road to recovery!

p.s. one time i needed surgery and a butcher quoted me cheaper than a surgeon so i went to him to perform the operation. let me tell you, did not go so well.... j/k
