    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....

Any help like if I should bring to vet , or What can be done to stop it. Not sure how she got it she was caged by herself no tail nips and overnight it rotted. Already about 1/2in has fallen off. And does not look to be getting better, using betadine on it. Also anyone know of a vet in the bay area where I could bring her too....thanks

I don't have experience with betadine, I've tried neosporin abd goldenseal with success. Also administer reptaid http://www.reptaid.com/ as per the instructions and make sure the temperatures on the high side of the proper range. If there's not a change an amputation done at the vet would insure the infection doesn't progress into a serious problem. Apple cider can be applied topically and mixed in the drinking water occasionally to strengthen the immune system and fight infections. If you do get the tail amputated it would still be a good idea to treat this way to ward of what may have caused this.
