Bit of an update here: my vet can’t get to him for a couple weeks so we are doing the Betadine bath every few days. I also gave him an electrolyte bath because he is so dehydrated his eyes are crinkly and he’s saggy/wrinkled. I’m waiting on some silvadine cream and in the mean time using some vetericyn to help his back. After the soaks, he’s just losing dry skin like confetti in individual flakes.
Unfortunately today a couple brown scales actually came off. Like…the scales. Exposing the skin underneath. I called my vet back, and even though he can’t get in, they want to get him on antibiotics asap.
no more live mites at the moment, but as we did in the past, mite treatment will
continue past 30 days.
