PART 2 of 3
For those who don't know what a nebulizer is, it's a glorified air pump that acts as an inhailer , by pumping air thru a surgical tube, and into a small enclosed container, where it's mixed with the antibiotics to create a fog, then it goes thru a mouthpiece (which I removed). I hooked this up to a rubbermaid container to use as a holding tank for the snakes while they got the snot fogged out of them - literally. I'd put about 7-8cc's in, and that would last for about 20 minutes. Even when the meds were gone, I'd still leave them in the rubbermaid because there was still plenty of "fog" to inhale.
This pic shows me putting the meds in:

This pic shows it connecting to the rubbermaid - I taped the rest of the holes.

Here you can kinda see the "fog" blowing out, it doesn't take long to cloud it up.

Here's the male just getting put in.

I then put the whole container back into the cage. That keeps it warm, plus any of the meds that may seep out of the cracks in the lid will still stay in the cage.

WAIT, WAIT .... THERE'S A PART THEE, I MEAN THREE --almost done
