First step is remove them from the community into a quarantined area. Second is make positive ID of the ailment. You can contact me if you need help identifying the problem. Third is providing the right treatment and making sure you know how to do it correctly. If you have any doubt you should immediately contact a pro for help (msatr provides this for free) Do not practice on a living creature of any kind and never take any health issue lightly as almost all minor issues will quickly lead to major ones if ignored. Lastly and most importantly remember you are the owner and are responsible for the animals health. If it dies because of a treatable disease then in my opinion you are accountable for it's death if you do nothing. I know that is harsh but it is also the truth.
