Pinworms... oh, joy.
I wasn't worried about Cu; she's been eating like a monster (for the first time in her life), and has fully recovered from her RI last month. I was really worried about my beardie, Budo, who's been lethargic and refuses food. But, when I took in Budo's fecal sample, I decided I'd take in Cu's, just to say I'd done it.
Well, well, well. Budo is, as I had predicted, loaded with coccida and pinworms. Cu also has pins, though not nearly as many as Budo.
So, Budo is on Panacur, something for coccida (being mailed), and liquid calcium for his metabolic bone disease (he was in bad shape when I adopted him; never again will I give a cent to the East Bay Vivarium!), and Cu is on Panacur.
I was told how to administer it; index card to open the mouth, squirt meds behind trachea. I'm still a bit nervous, as I know their mouths are sensitive. Any tips would be appreciated!!
