I know, I just posted. Anywho. I was just playing with ziggy when I noticed these little orange-ish critters crawling on her (I'm just gonna assume she's female for the moment) skin. Would a regular bath get them completely off her, and since I'm moving her to a new house today, she won't get reinfested, right? And what do I do with the old aquarium? Bleach it? and what about the nice piece of driftwood I have, too? Bleaching it won't, like, hurt Ziggy, will it? I'm mildly panicking...

And, while I'm wporrying, I have another question. Ziggy has some red at the corners of her mouth. At first I thought it was tomatoe, 'cause my mother fed her a tomatoe, but it's been there for two days. It kinda looks like blood. What could have happened? I didn't notice it the first day I had her, but it might have been there. Anyway. I'm (hopefully!) going to get my mother to make an appointment with the vet this coming weekend. I have to go back to school on the second (don't know WHY they're sending us back to school on a THURSDAY, but our legislature's a bit wacked), and I'm rather booked tomorrow and Weds. Should I do it sooner? Eh. The mites have me riled up. Why on earth did they spray the first one (my dad bought an iguana....it died Christmas eve *smacks pet store for selling obviously sick animals*) but not the second one.

So, anyway. Please respond promptly! Thanks!
