Well... I just got home from the vet... He checked Dexter over real good from top to bottom and he definitely isn't dehydrated. So, that's good news! I could tell he wasn't... So, he has obviously been drinking the Nutribac infused water that i've been giving him, which is also good news. I had him help me syringe a nice 1 gram dose of the Nutribac down him, though. The vet recommended deworming him just for good measure... I told him how some of you advised against it, but he still sent me home with 3 rounds of pannacur, which I will need to administer orally over the next 3 days... Fun fun!Other than that, he recommended that I try to feed him a small meal in 2 weeks and I will also continue the Nutribac water treatment...
I told the vet that little Dexter should get a rat flavored sucker for being such a good boy at his first visit to the doctors... lol I will post about Misty in the other thread I have going for her...
OHHH! I totally forgot to mention that the vet agreed completely that Dexter's problem was most likely brought on by the temperature and/or draft problems I was having. He said that cold drafts and temperatures being too low is the #1 cause for snakes regurgitating...
