Wow, okay. Thank you.
I will start the probiotics tonight if I can. I never used this before, how much powder do I put in the rodents mouth? Is the dosage critical?
Sure, I can weigh her at any point. Although, the last 3 times I got her weight was 3 days after she ate. If I get her weight right before she eats, I won't have anything to compare it to.
I will feed one more rodent from Rodent Pro and then look into a new supplier. I had no idea. I have used rodent pro for my boelens entire life and never had a issue. I can even specify a certain weight. For example, 275-300g rats. I check the weight myself and just about every one is within spec.
To be clear. I noticed a little bit of blood coming from her mouth 6 months ago. I was ontop of it immediately and took her to the vet. My vet suspected early mouth rot but wasn't certain. She then was put on antibiotics that day for an entire month. I would take her to my vet every 3 days for an injection. So, it's been about 5 months since the antibiotics. Also, the picture I posted of her mouth open was from about 3 weeks ago. The other pictures are more recent.
I know she anit no spring chicken, but I also didn't think 11 was old for a python. So the antibiotics can cause weight loss?
Thanks everyone, I will let my vet know and keep you posted.
