Franklin hasn’t been eating for awhile & took him to the vet the women said there was some kind of plaque inside his mouth also bottom mouth was swollen on the outside. The doctor did a oral clean and removed the plaque but she stopped because unfortunately the nasty plaque build up in his mouth was only keeping his lower jaw mandible from falling off, there was some type of infection she wasn’t to detailed. Franklin had signs of MBD soft shell on his stomach but I knew that because he hasn’t been eating at all, I always had UVB for him. She suggested tube feeding, syringe feeding, and breaking small bits of food. After flushing his mouth, and giving him iodine to kill bacteria Franklins been a little more active he’s been wanting to eat now which was a good sign. My question to you guys is how can I go about this situation? Will his lower mandible jaw grow back? What can I do to get him moving again?
The green stuff that you see around his mouth is from the syringe.
