I posted a week or 2 ago about Yoshi's lip i posted a pic and jazz, anyhow i brought him to the vet the vet told me its mouth rot.
he gave me Nolvasan, anyone had expirence with it he told me to put it 2-3 times a day for 3 week son hsi lesion on hsi lip... Anys ide affects anyone ahs seen form it...

Also he told me its because i use bird seed as a bedding and told me to switch to repti carpet... now i use repti carpet with all my other reptiles because its so easy btu for a Uro? i dunno wanted to see what you all thought about it.

My Saharans have both had issues with their lips and mouths - Nolvasan won't hurt the uros at all. Switching to Repticarpet might not be a bad idea until the mouthrot heals, just to keep any possible crud out of his mouth (or from sticking to him). When he's healthy again, you can go back to birdseed.
