F10 effects on gravid females

mx318 Feb 26, 2012 11:29 AM

I ended up with a gravid female with an RI. I had two other balls I took too the vet to treat for RI also and got them meds, then a couple days ago I noticed my gravid girl has an RI as well.Not real bad yet, but Im hearing popping. She was breeding with the male I took too the vet, so thaqts how she caught it I think.

I am currently treating her with F10 and a zoo med fogger.

Does anyone know if the F10 well have any effects on her being gravid close too ovulating? Im really trying to avoid taking her to the vet, as not to cause more stress on her.

Thanks for any advise

You should ask BHB, they came up with the idea. Personally I would never inhale a disinfectant or let my animals. Disinfectants are to be used on inanimate objects, NOT living things.

I also want to commend you for bringing you male to the vet! I would recommend the same for your female.
