Adult Whiteside female possible RI.

thomas_matthew Jan 11, 2008 01:06 PM

Just wondering if there was any certain amount of baytril shots (the correct amounts) i should give and adult female whitesided black rat.
RI's aren't something i ever have but had one in a python years ago.
I have just put her on a hotspot of around 95, and she is in shed.
She doesn't seem too awful bad off, but i wanted to get some injections from my vet just in case.
Should i get the vitamin C shots for her too to boost her imune system?
any information would be GREAT, and much appreciated.

thanx in advance.

matthew

Nevermind, she cleared up just fine.

>>Nevermind, she cleared up just fine.

sometimes when they are in shed they can get a clicking noise when they breath. loose skin in their nostrils.
That was probably the issue with your snake.
I bet as soon as it shed the seemingly RI problem cleared up.
