    Based on?

    Your Veterinarian degree?
    Years of veterinary medicine practice?
    Curing 100's animals or more successfully this way?

    I am curious what were the results of the cultured that your vet did before choosing the proper antibiotics? For how long did he prescribe Baytril for? What were the results of the culture after YOUR treatment which "miraculously" treated your snakes?

    Over the years I have seen many so called home treatments (including this one) that people believe cure their animals however it only alleviate the symptoms sometimes giving the appearance of a healthy snakes.

    This is a DO NOT try this at home thing, yes I know that some of you who are getting started and are reading this may think this is great and cheap way to get rid of a RI and will decide to try it thinking it is the "miracle cure" however you need to think and I will refer you to this http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...ons-The-Basics

    If someone suspects a RI they need to go to a HERP vet, get a culture and get the appropriate antibiotic prescribed.
