Rehabilitation/Burn care?

[madmoxxiie]

Your pictures aren't showing up, atleast not for me. This will show you how to upload them: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...-Post-Pictures

I have been treating a burned snake I got from someone for months with tremendous success so far. I got a lot of great advice in this thread I created:
http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showthread.php?t=236539

My care method is outlined in there somewhere, and it did change a bit after getting advice so read it completely. A few questions. How do you have him setup? Is the wound infected? Indicators would be foul smell or oozing. If its infected your only option is to go to a vet for antibiotic injections. If possible take him to a vet regardless. Please upload pictures of the wounds when you can.

And good on you for helping the little guy!

Here's a picture from today



And here's a picture from 2 weeks ago, for progress comparison



Sorry, I was using my phone and didn't realize there was an app i could use!

It isn't oozing, and nothing is open at this point. Right now I have her in a 40 gallon tank with a carpet liner, a large water dish, some foliage, and a half log for hiding. Heat source is an under tank pad, and I keep the tank floor at about 85-90 degrees. Humidity is 55-60 consistently. She seems to like her leaves more than anything for hiding.

We don't have any heat lamps or anything like that on the tank.

I just don't know what else I can do to help and unfortunately the only vet that sees exotic animals is 40 minutes from here
