My king snake has mouth rot. I know the usual treatment is to get her to a vet asap, but the problem with that is the nearest herp vet is over 2 hours away and to be honest I don't have that kind of money right now (we're in a tight spot financially at the moment). Does anyone have any advice, OTC medications or home remedies that can help?
I don't want to lose her, but I know how it will progress without treatment. She did eat a mouse two days ago, but she was reluctant. I left her alone, covered her cage, and checked back on her in about an hour, and she had eaten. She normally just goes right after it.
I will do my best to keep the area clean and irrigated, but if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks.
