ha! and this cracks me up. they kept telling me how these could not have come from any food source because they are "snake specific" and then it says "tapeworm egg--unable to identify other than tapeworm" Doesn't sound very snake specific.

My thought is to get some deworming pills and treat him myself. I really don't get the impression that anyone there knows what they're doing.

Anyone dewormed snakes before?

Why are you doubting the vet so vigorously? They've gone to school for this stuff, just because they dont put the scientific name of the infection on your printout doesnt mean that she doesnt know what she's talking about. If your so interested on prescribing medicine yourself, why not get a second opinion first?
