Can you use turtle sulfur bath on caiman. I have some turtles that I use it on once a week and was wondering if it is safe to use with caiman and if it would be benefical to use it on them.

Are you having a problem, or just looking for preventative care?
This is just my opinion, but I wouldn't use it. My reason is that I prefer to keep things clean (I know you do, too), and animals healthy through husbandry and diet without additional chemicals. I think overuse of antibiotics and disinfectants can affect immunity and natural beneficial flora. I know water turtles have particular issues which is why people use sulfa baths with them, but I wouldn't cross it over to other herps as a 'just in case' measure.
