My Aunt has a Green Iguana that is 6 years old! He is spoiled and she keeps him very clean, in fact he poops in the bathtub every morning so there is no poop in his cage ever! She notice some blisters on his tail, took him to the vet and gave her Baytril to give him until the culture came back.. She gave baytril for a week and brought Guanni back with no improvement, the culture said it was a bacterial infection so the vet gave her penicillin shot to give him. She gave him those and she though it was getting better but now she has noticed another bump under the scales and is afraid another sore will form. Here are some pictures of the sores after weeks of meds and 2 vet trips! I told her to go to another vet to get a 2nd opinion and she plans to but the cost of all these vet trips are piling up and she is worried about her baby! Wanted to see if you have seen this before and anything she can do to help it..
Thanks Much!
