    cut/sore

    my male garter seems to have a sore on his side of this body about 7 inchesor so down i have looked at it it looks like it could be an infection or something.

    is hydrogen peroxcide(sp?) dangerous for them? polysporn is that bad too?

    i will try to get a good picture of it and post it here, any help would be much appreciated thanks

    I use neosporan if I find an injured snake that needs attention.

    I used neosporin on one of my wild caught garters (male hypermel wandering) that a bird got a hold of....little cut across the back, healed up nicely
