Perry,
We have used panacur on freshly wild caught chucks in the past as a preventive measure. We were careful to give them smaller doses. It didn't seem to make a big difference one way or the other. We have tried it both ways with wild caughts; treating with panacur, and not treating at all. It is a good idea get a fecal sample checked out first, though. If there are no parasites there for the panacur to kill, why put them through the stress? I think that after trying both methods, it seems to us that stress plays a bigger part in a wild caught chuck's well bieng.

Nick & Austin.
