I'm not sure if tylan is the right antibiotic or for what germ, but a forum member on one of the boa forums recommended I try tylan after spending $200 at the vet and 2 weeks of Baytil 68mg pills with no results. We even tried adding a second antibiotic given in shots for an additional 2 weeks. Nothing seemed to cure the RI my girl had last year and it had been over a month since she ate. A forum member suggested I should give this tylan a try, she sent me a link and instructions along with a few threads. One of those threads was from Jeff Ronne with great results from using this tylan.
I don't know how tylan works on rats but $20.00 and a few shots later the RI was completely gone from my girl and she went right back to eating better than ever. Vet or no vet I appreciate the information and experience shared by all willing to help. I'm glad some are willing to step outside the box to help out a fellow snake owner.
