Congratulations, you are now a dipping expert and will be able to give advice to everyone else here on technique! I'm glad it went so well!
[Edit]
Despite Graysan's itchiness the Vet did not feel that his case was severe so she said once a week was fine with the dips unless he started really breaking out worse. Odd thing was right after he started the fluconazole a new spot appeared on his head. Until then it was only the spot above his eye. But as I have seen so many say that it can get worse before it gets better. YG's spot on his arm looks almost completely healed and the tiny one under his neck is being treated. Nothing else new on him so we are hoping that we are nipping it in the bud.
I may just continue with colloidal silver (10 ppm) on the top of his head and the slight sparseness behind his ear. I am more comfortable with that instead of miconazole cream. Also I can still put it above his eye on the spot that is healing without panicking if some goes into his eye. I was really cautious about putting the lime sulfur too close on his brow.
One thing that is great is that my husband said he now feels more comfortable petting them. I never stopped holding and petting them (I think it is essential for healing). We still have to be mindful of the spores that could be surviving but it does make you feel a little 'safer' because we know they were dipped.
And I truly understand what you mean about the dust bunnies! We always call them 'furry tumbleweeds'. I swear I would clean, sit down with a sigh of satisfaction, look up and see one rolling by as if it is laughing at me! "Missed me!!! Hahahaha!"
Thank you again Bunnelina! You are amazing!
