Concerned about fungus YF

Hello,

Thanks for posting the blood test for us.
The kidney values (uric acid readings) are within range, & the AST (liver values) are as well. So,
that is great news. The calcium to phosphorus ratio is good & balance too. It doesn't appear that
there is any infection present.
That's great news the eye is looking slightly better. The saline solution might be more soothing for
the eye. It is hopefully just stuck shed causing these issues!

ADV came back negative. The exotic vet still thinks it’s an eye infection and started him on oral Enrofloxacin .25 x 3 weeks to also cover the cyst on tail as well.

Hello,

That's great the adeno test came back Negative then. I hope that the eye infection clears up soon. The Enroflaxin/Baytril is a routinely used antibiotic for a lot of various infections. Be sure to keep him well hydrated while on the meds.
How is the tail looking today?

Tail looks normal. Keep cleaning eye with optical saline as directed by vet. Looks less gooky. Rescue said tail has been examined by exotic vet multiple times definitely just cyst. He is a really good greens eater since 3+ yo adult so 80% plus good greens and he eats plenty wet greens daily collard greens, mustard greens, turnip greens, dandelion greens, arugula, and I usually add in a little bit of squash just a tiny bit. Poop yesterday looked good.

Hello,

That's great he eats his greens very well, not many of
them do! The squash is a great addition.
That's good to hear it is just a cyst so hopefully it will
heal up pretty soon. They do tend to heal up slowly so
keep working with him.
