 After the vet - good news

well, our vet gave little sparky a good, clean bill of health. fecals came back negative, and he said that our little GIRL is doing well, dispite her rough trip. he also told me that it is possible that the shell can grow back through its chips if we take regular colgate or crest toothpaste, clean his shell every day with it, and let some sit in the holes overnight. something about the flouride buildup being good for her. sounded strange to me, but any vet that has 5 LARGE sulcattas running around his office (smallest is 30+ lbs) along with the jungle he has at home, i figure he knows what hes talking about. so she gets to be brushed every day. god that sounds silly. lol.
so things are good, and im happy about the progress made with the breeder i dealt with. sparky will be fine, the breeder will be shut down, and we will have a great new addition to our family for a long, LONG time to come. what more could you want??

Great news! I’m glad the "breeder" is going bye bye as well.
