I been battling Cuccidia and I been cleaning the cges with a mild solution of bleach water.. Well the other day i was told on here that there wasn't nothing that actually kills Cuccidia.. Anyway I went to a well know pet shop in Seattle that sells, reptiles, cats, dogs, fish, spiders etc... Anyway 4 years ago they had a problem with this disease and they called the health department and the health department told them to use a broad spectrum disinfectant called Virkon's.. They said they clean all their cages with this and it has been known to kill Cuccidia and they haven't had a problem with this disease in the 4 years they been using it.. I got a packet of it and it only cost me $4... And you don't have to worry ab out the bleach fume hurting your reptiles...I just thought I would share this with everyone..

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
