    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 need some help

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!!
