Description

We’ve all encountered them in practice: The myths surrounding reptile husbandry and medicine. The myths run the gamut, from believing carrot juice baths will help a reptile with a Vitamin A deficiency, reptiles don’t need water, and snakes need help shedding their skin. In this VetFolio Voice podcast episode, we set the record straight: Soaking reptiles in carrot juice does nothing for their health and only results in an orange, sticky lizard and even desert reptiles need water, and reptiles do not usually need help shedding. Tune in to learn how to educate well-meaning but misinformed pet owners with empathy as well as understand that the concepts and principles important in dog and cat medicine also apply to working up and treating reptiles and other exotic species.
