I don't have a reptile vet anywhere near me. I do have a book on reptile medicine and surgery and it says to treat Dystocias with Oxytocin and in some cases an injection of calcium will increase the chances of success, but on average it only works 50% of the time.

Has anyone ever tride this? My local vet is willing to give the injection and at this point I don't see how I have a choice. Again, any help is appreciated.
