    Argh!! What to do

    ARGH!!! Thats how i feel. Just very frustrated. I recently picked up 3 breeder females and 1 mojave male. I got them for a reasonable price. But now not too long after ALL 4 of them came down with a RI within just a couple days of being home. Now I have been breeding since 2004 and NEVER had a snake with an RI in my collection. I am thankful that I do practice proper quarantine procedures. I am VERY upset that I was sold sick snakes... however what really urks me, and this is the reason for my rant...There are no vets, not a single one in my area that can see my animals today so I can get the baytril they need. The one vet that does specialize in reptiles is about a mile away from me, but they are not accepting new clients at this time. I asked them to make an exception in order to help keep 4 living creatures alive. But alas they said no. So now what do i have to do.. but wait til TUESDAY until the other clinic that works with snakes has an apointment available. I just wish there were more vets out there that cared about reptiles instead of just cats and dogs.. that way my animals would not have to suffer. Ok, rant over... thanks for listening.

    get them some meds, ask the vet to teach you how to give injections, they will be fine!
