Hello,
I got a tiny leopard baby, and yesterday I noticed he got some bubbles coming up from his nose, and I can tell he is a little sick. He still eats well. I read all kind of posts yesterday, and increased his temps today. The ambient is about 88 or so. Of course, because he is in the open container, it is really hard to control temps, and some of the high ones a measured with temp gun were a bit over 100. But overall 88-90 ambient. I will be covering him tonight with the foil as I saw in Yvonne's postings. We will be building closed enclosure this weekend.
But I want him to get better in the mean time and ASAP. How long would it take to clear the infection?
And when should I take him to vet? Should I wait and see for few days, a week? Or go right away?
Like I said he still eats and is moderately active.
