Why didn't the vet just send some saliva off? Did she just not do more Baytril? Every 5 days injections of Baytril isn't going to let anyone know whether it's working or not. Most everything is susceptible to Baytril unless you just have something weird(even the rare bacteria my snake has was Intermediately susceptible to Baytril).



There are alot of other inexpensive antibiotics to try. Amikacin is a good one and can be nebulized, Fortaz(ceftazidime), Amoxicillin, Clavamox, Tylan(Tylosin), etc. You can even get Tylan from Tractor Supply and other farm and ranch supply stores. Dose for that is 5mg/kg q24h for 7d SubQ. It works well against mycoplasma bacteria(common cause of reptile RI).
