    Like BG said before...a culture is the best thing to do, but it's usually not needed if you use Fortaz and Baytril. BG knows many breeders that use this mix.
    I've cultured bacteria from snakes that was resistant to both Fortaz (ceftazidime) and Baytril, probably from breeders shot-gun treating their snakes without doing culture & sensitivity testing.

    mpkeelee, a couple things to talk to the vet about:
    1. Is the mucus coming from the respiratory tract or the esophagus?
    2. Was a culture & sensitivity done to determine the best antibiotics to use?
    Would you breed a wobbler dog even though it had a cool coat?
