I have purchased my Tylan at the local feed store. It is a commonly used anibiotic in chickens and sold over the counter.

All I was just thinking was, if the baytril didn't work the first go round, why not try something different? I have also heard very good things about an anibiotic called Fortaz. Most vets don't carry it, but they can order it.

Personally, I would question the vet about sticking to a treatment that doesn't seem to be working, but that is just me. I am rather pushy when it comes to my animals, particularly since so few vets know much about reptiles, although very few will admit that to a client. I quit using one vet a while ago because he wouldn't answer my questions and seem irritated that I would even ask questions ...I was just supposed to trust him. Sorry, but if I am paying someone, then they get to answer any questions I might have. My animals mean more to me that some vets stupid ego.
