I recommend getting a second opinion and having culture and cytology performed by a reptile veterinarian. There are many things that can cause exudate of dark color--fungal vs bacterial vs viral. Cytology would determine whether fungal elements are present. Culture may show bacteria resistant to baytril or anaerobic bacterial infection (baytril has no efficacy against anaerobes). Just a recommendation if things aren't getting better!

I went to a different vet in Dallas yesterday, and he has mites! They're not in his enclosue thank god, but I have already began to treat it just in case. I talked to the pet store and they have agreed to pay all my vet bills! The vet has effectivly treated Slim, and he's perked up a lot! WEll thanks for the help a second opinion was all we needed!!
