Message: [QUOTE="CooperDragon, post: 1982454, member: 76248"] I'm glad the vet was able to get a blood sample. Hopefully the tests will turn up some useful info leading to effective treatment. I'd probably be careful administering baytril without confirmation of a bacterial infection. That can be harmful to their kidneys and wind up not being beneficial if not needed. It's a good sign that he is eating and running around his enclosure. Try offering him some cut up pieces of zucchini or other squash and see if he likes it. I usually cut them into small worm shapes and hand feed them. Squash is nutritious and hydrating. You can also offer water by dripping it on his nose and see if he licks it up. Baths are OK if he seems to enjoy them and doesn't panic. If he doesn't seem to like baths, then I would avoid them since they aren't worth the stress. [/QUOTE]
