RI data collection

Ok people, data check.

Of all of you who have had pythons with respiratory infections, and got cultures done...

What came back on the culture?
How long did it take to go away?

Just collecting data for my brain.

Ok, let me reword.

Has anyone ever dealt with an RI outbreak caused by klebsiella bacteria?

I believe Pseudomonas and Proteus sp are probably the most commonly found bacteria. They go by different names these days; but I can't remember them, offhand.

I have done a ton of research and klebsiella pneumoniae is commonly found in them, but it can act up if they have stressed immune systems. (I had a massive mite outbreak...took care of it, but it stressed them to hell)
If Klebsiella is breathed in...(it can be found in their poo as well), it wreaks havoc....and can be quite hard to get rid of.

I am treating with Tazicef (vet said it works against klebsiella) and they are not getting any worse, but they don't appear to really be getting much better either.

Such a mess. I wish balls were more like colubrids. (aka more temp resilient, tougher in general).
