It's kinda difficult to see the skin problem in that lower photo. I think it's great you're posting the pics, as I've never seen a pic or an animal that had this awful illness. Be it as it may, post more pics you think highlight the disease for us to learn from. What i think is clear from the top photo is the lack of strength in the posterior portion of the body -- it seems kinda weird/limp. I also got your e-mail the other day -- we'll work on it, but consider it done for 2009. Again, so sorry you're having to go through this. I hope this all comes through for you after your hard work and diligence. If what you've been doing is working, then keep on with it. Disinfectants such as Betadine or Nolvasan are always a good idea, and if they are still eating, use some Nutribac which helps replenish the good digestive bacteria in a reptiles' digestive system. It never hurts, particularly when reptiles have been on antibiotics or have been under alot of stress or have had digestive/regurgitation issues. I have recently obtained some of this product, but from a close friend I have heard it works extremely well. Please do keep us posted man -- best wishes.
