She’s about a 6″ Female DBT that had her tail nipped recently & was being treated in a seperate enclosure. I treated the tail & it healed up well but after she started to appear weak. Not eating, listing a little to one side & kind of lethargic. I thought she may be in the beginings of RI or septicemia (from the tail injury) so I took her to the vet. she wasn’t giveing any strong signals to what was wrong. She is on a daily injection of Baytril & a weekly injection of Oxycure. So far she has only had 2 baytril shots & 1 Oxycure. I checked on her today & found her completely submerged, extremities extended. I pulled her out & she was limp & lifeless. I then started to try & get her breathing again as I stated in the other post.
