Hi. I have been at the vet with my snake. He made two swaps - one from the mouth and one from inside of the air pipe. A few days after the probe i got the results. Common pneumonia bacteria and another one, normally found in the mouth of reptiles. He said, maybe the pneumonia bacteria grew too much, because of the stress the snake had because itīs new environment. Until yesterday the snake had no more signs of an R.I. She started gettin blue last saturday and is clear now for 2 days, so she should shed today or tommorrow. Yesterday i got her out to look at her and she produced one big bubble in her right nostril, no bad sounds, no other signs. I talked to the vet and he said during the swap and growing a culture they made tests with different antibiotics and found one that killed the found bacteria really quick. I forgot the name. He said, i should give this medicament as a fluid daily orally to the snake for a week.
I think this will stress me and my snake out a lot. I would rather like to give injections. Isnīt a week too less for an antibiotical Treatment ?
