    Re: New BEL with pink blotches

    Yep, that's roughly my plan. She had an hourlong soak with dish soap yesterday that didn't dislodge anything, so I think her mite burden is at least not high. And yes... Grateful that she's light-colored! And very happy that she is a proper weight, or I would be more worried.

    Her belly looks normal, no pink. Believe me, I went deep down the rabbit hole of sepsis in white BPs presenting as pink splotches yesterday, but I've pretty much talked myself out of it. Her skin looks less angry today, I think the soap in the soak may have irritated her a little. Will add less next time, but I'm thinking about giving her a break for a few days to see if she won't eat for me.

    I hope you're right. I have a soft spot for the underdogs, I think a lil TLC will help us both bond.
