Hi all.
Now that they seem to have turned the corner with the acutely lethal phase of their hypocalcemia/malnutrition/dehydration/electrolyte imbalance, one of our remaining rescued babies may have an inner ear infection. Head tilted, moving to left, tips over on log, etc. Will be calling vet in morning. Listed as exotic vet, but don't know how good they are w/reptiles. I don't want to potentially get mislead. Do any of you know which antibiotic(s) r used for beardies? The other hurdle will be dosage since she's only about 25 g, but we'll cross that when we get there.
After 10 weeks and having lost 8 siblings one by one due to seizures as a result of the calcium deficiency/electrolyte imbalance and having gotten both of these to grow (2 sheds each!) and hunt entirely independently, I'll be d*&^%d if I'll lose another because of an ear infection and don't want to waste time on a lame vet.
Thanks!
Frank
