Jen,

You might just try calling Roger Klingenberg.

See if he can do a phone consultation with you/your local vet.

Perhaps he can work with one of your local Vets....even if there are no "Reptile Vets" in you area...maybe Roger can help.

I got lucky we just have some good Vets here in Colorado... like Dr. K for instance.

As for keeping meds on hand....

We used to get a lot of great herp meds from Mexico.

You know the drill....your out on a West Texas herping trip and you drop over the border to pick up some meds in Acuna....or where ever.

As long as you claimed all the meds at the border...no problems.



But that was then....and it don't work like that anymore!



American pharmaceutical manufacturers have decided that they do not want American consumers to be able to purchase their meds MUCH cheaper (and easier) in foreign countries.

So now there are more strict laws in place....and they are enforced.

In a nutshell....don't try getting your drugs in Mexico! LOL

(that was a nice short trip down memory lane.)



A Vet should be able to get you what you need.

Some less sensitive medications can be purchased from a Vet in larger quantities. Just explain that you have a large collection. And always work closely with a Vet when you are treating any animal.

"Shotgun treatments or guestimate diagnosis" is NOT the way to go.

Always get a culture...so that you really know what you are fighting. Good luck with the het clown.

See ya.
