Posted by: patness at Mon Sep 15 18:53:12 2003 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by patness ] My Boa is approximately 7 months old and has been showing some wierd signs lately. I brought him to the Vet at UF earlier today and was given 15 shots of Ceftazidime and told to give him one every 3 days. He hasnt eaten in approximately 3 weeks and is showing significant weight loss. Some symptoms are coughing, excess moisture around the mouth, weakness, vibrations while breathing, and difficulty breathing. I was wondering if I was too late to get him to the Vet and If anyone has any suggestions to help with recovery. His setup is a 20 Long tank with bed-a-beast (which I am switching for newspaper), a hide box (which I will be switching for 3 small tupperwear containers 2 with sponges), an undertank heater ( which I will discontinue using in favor of a ceramic heat lamp). I would be greatful on any input or suggestions. Thank You very much. | ||
