You didn't, but that Ferdy angered me. Apology accepted.
What is it about people? Whenever an animal has an issue, they immediate jump to the conclusion that it's a "cruelty to animals" case. Makes me so mad.
And I just spoke with my vet again on the Hydrogen Peroxide issue. He said, "It can irritate the eyes, but a small squirt of it will not do any damage. It works effectively to clean off any infection."
Turns out, it worked great. His eye looks 100%.
Ferdy - Believe me, I spoke with a family friend vet before I did anything (he's 1000 miles away in Colorado). It was his idea to use the hydrogen peroxide. I don't have a good reptile vet available near me.
I appreciate your thoughts, but I do not appreciate your rude comments, "Am I...
Thanks Carrol. I tried some squirting a little bit of hydrogen peroxide into it this morning. If it doesn't appear to be getting any better by tomorrow then I'll try Terramycin. I know I can get it at the feed store because my dad uses it for his cattle. I'll just dilute it significantly and...

And I'm not looking for a soft screen, but a heavy duty...
Been there - no luck. I'm looking for specialty screens. The kind you can't find at a common store. I guess "screens" probably isn't the appropriate word for what I'm looking for. More like "wire mesh" or "wire cloth" coated in plastic and in a diamond shape.
Thanks anyways.
Hey all,
I'm thinking about building some more cages, but I'm going to look for other options for screen other than aluminum standard window screens. I just hate seeing my cham's lose toenails.
Does anyone know of a good place that caries are large variation of screens?
