Wishing you the best of luck, and a speedy recovery for your new darling. I haven't had to work with burns yet *knock on wood*, just lacerations and scale rot so far. Please keep us posted!

I found a gallon jug of chlorhexidine on ebay for only $11, and it was here in a day. I decided to go that route. They didn't have exactly what I needed here in town. I found a small bottle at CVS, but it was about $18 if I remember correctly.

He finished shedding the other day and the burn looks tremendously better. It is encouraging to see the treatment is working. I've continued to treat him the same minus the peroxide. It isn't oozing or smelling badly, so I don't believe it is infected. Let me know what you think of the photos. Also, now that he has shed, do you think he is a pastel?
