Who knows the proper dosage?



My alpha Colombian redfoot is at least a month late on her early January clutch. She is lethargic.. won't eat.. and expelled "water" out her nose and mouth this morning! She has been raised from a 10/98 hatchling and has produced well over 100 eggs since Aug. '04.. like clock-work.



The drought of '07 has had an impact on the laying season of all of my females.. starting about a month late - plus.. less than a 20% hatch rate from the first 3 clutches. No doubt from available "grazing" and male interest because of no "breeding-season" NO RAIN.. did what we could. It's been crazy!



Is X-ray necessary.. and what dosage is proper?



Thanks,



Terry
