HOLY COW! I just read the Sendai Virus page and the Clinical Signs for it. THAT is what it has to be. CC had a lot of those signs. Now that I just read over the signs, I can say that most of my rats are showing those same signs.
Most being:
# Sneezing
# Hunched posture
# Respiratory distress
# Labored breathing
# Porphyrin discharge from eyes and/or nose
# Lethargy
# Partial or full litter loss
# Failure to thrive in surviving babies and young rats
# Anorexia
I have a few rats that were fat but now are nothing but skin and bones with a very hunched up back. The litters that were healthy at two weeks old but now look very sick and skinny. Also with other younger rats look very old and sick. Some of the rats are sneezing and have porphyrin discharge from their nose/eyes also.
WOW this sucks. Should I just put them all down since it seems like they aren't going to make it and I just read that there isn't a cure for SV. This sucks!
