Thanks for the reply.

How long could a parasite live in a BD? Reason I'm asking is I contacted the previous owner, and she told me when she first got him (from another owner) he basically did the same thing with her. He wouldn't eat for 2 weeks and when he did it would only be any where from 2 - 3 super worms one day and 6 - 7 another day. He was never big on veggies nor was he big on eating. This being said, would it be possible for him to have a parasite in him for 6 mths or longer? Would the symptoms be the same or would they be much more serious? He has only had one or two bowel movements. I never thought to take a fecal sample. Is there another way to test?
