    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have read a couple different things to help cure this but would really like to know first hand what works ?

I have a couple of large burmese pythons 10' that someone just gave me and both have "snot" coming out of thier noses

Ive heard of people using a Nebulizer with Amikacin & Mucomyst

also Amikacin & Fortaz in the injection form

I called the local vet and he uses "baytril" in injection form
and I wanted to know if that would work before I wasted my money

I just want to do it right the first time


Thank You In Advance For Your Help...
 
Respitory Infection

Hello Kevin yes Baytril does work and is the drug of choice for RI`s I just had a ball come down with a RI in shipping my vet gave me baytril and I had to give him a injection for one a day for 14 days and it cleared it up great the only thing is that burmess are prone to RI`s a very common problem with them and useally when they get one it has a habit of comeing back when it is time to coll them down a little for breeding but anyway you should get them to the vet ASAP because this can be fatal its just like a human getting phenmonia excuse y spelling its late and I am tired well I hope this helps take care Paul
