Long Road For AJax

AJ went into to the reptile specialist last month and started his Fortaz treatment and so far with it being a month tomorrow that he went into quarantine there has been change or improvement and last Thursday he almost didn't eat. Keep fingers crossed and prayers and good thoughts his way that the treatment will be found and work and that one day he will be back with the collection. He will be a year on the 13th of next month

Did you mean to say that there has been no change or improvement? We are all pulling for AJ's recovery.

Yes I am afraid so he ate last night but still is making clicking noises. He is quarantined from everyone else his warm area is 86.7 and cool side is in the mid 70's. When he was was examined the specialist said there was no mucous in the front of his mouth and his golatis was fine but he did fine minor bubbling in the back of his throat. He seems active and he does eat. I hope that by quarantine him when the vet said too that he didn't pass it to my other 10 snakes, (I didn't seperate him from the group when I first got him). My other 10 seem fine and are active and they too also eat.

Best wishes on his full recovery.

I don't want to second guess the reptile specialist, but usually a bacterial infection does show improvement using Fortaz rather soon. The Vet usually tells you to follow through with all the treatments even though the snake appears to have fully recovered. After a month I would think the Fortaz isn't effective for AJ's condition. Has your reptile specialist suggested any other treatments?

He won't till after the 27 days are done he couldn't do a lung wash cause AJ was too small so I won't know till I bring him back in next month
