    Dwight Died :(

    Yeah, I treated her with anti-fungal for that and nothing happened. . .I know meds can stress them out though and I had already given her twice the recommended so I just decided to leave it alone. I dont think she even knows they're there she's not acting sick or anything, and eating fine.
