Re: Respitory infection :(

Vet will need to take cultures to discover what the cause is and them make a prescription to ensure you get the right treatment - different drugs cost different amounts.

Hope he is "back on his feet" soon!!!

^^^^^
the above would be the best course of action

or the vet may give you a broad spectrum antibiotic

i usually up my hot end temperature 5f,this helps the snakes own immune system to aid recovery

if i catch the respiritory in its early stages,i have also successfully used a nebuliser with dilluted F10,for 15 minutes morning and 15 minutes night for 2 to 4 weeks

cheers shaun
