[QUOTE="shmoomunchkin, post: 2019217, member: 117289"] My guy Scooby just turned 6 months so we just brought him into a reptile vet for his initial 6 month exam. He is 427 grams, 18 inches long, and growing very quickly. Stool sample says he has spiroochetes, and I am kind of beside myself because we keep his viv very clean. We are giving him metronidazole for the next seven days. I have probiotics on order for him. After a long day of traveling, we are going to wait to deep clean his viv tomorrow, because we had to travel 3 hours to this specialized vet. Thanks for reading to this point....my questions are: 1.How serious is this infection? He is gaining weight. 2. How do I terminally clean his viv? I have the F10 on order, but also have a handheld steam machine that goes to 212 degrees. Thanks for any advice. We had a young beardie die from congenital kidney disease, and my 14 year old and I, are trying to do everything possible for our guy Scooby [/QUOTE]
