Can you take the snake in to the vet so they know what they're dealing with? Treatment for snake bite can differ by species of snake. Maybe they're treating with the wrong protocol!

Sending more for Nickie!

Wow I just saw this....any updates, how is little Nick? Nothing is worst than something happening to the Pins, I know! A snake bite? That is crazy!
I hope she is doing better poor little girl.

I've got my fingers crossed for you Brenda... sometimes these things just take time, unfortunately we are impatient that way.

OMG, poor little guy! I hope he gets better soon. I know this sounds harsh, but if the infection is in his leg and it doesn't get better, wouldn't it be better to amputate his leg so no infection spreads?
