Last season, two of my long term captive w/c females laid nice clutches of eggs. They were perfectly healthy pastel clutches, but each clutch had 2 ticks on them. These animals had been treated inside and out for parasites.



So my question- do I need to retreat and how do you treat INTERNALLY for ticks? Where are these ticks hiding and how do I get rid of them (if there are any left)??



The animals are the best feeders and healthiest animals I own!
