Hi,

I just received 3 gators with bad sores on there digits and some with slight mouth rot. In the past I've dealt with gators that are malnourished, but I have never dealt with this problem. Has anyone ever dealt with this issue before? I know most people would suggest that I take them to the vet, but here in New Hampshire its hard to find a vet who will even look at an American Alligator over 2 feet and these guys are 3 feet. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Hbelo
