now get some probiotics into him.. you can get acidophilus at your local health food store (just break open a capsule into water or baby food etc and feed via dropper) or you can try petsmart and look for acidophiliz , the treatment would have rid him not only of bad stuff but his good gut bacteria as well.







>>My beardie is finally coccidia free, and growing. He has no more parasites at all. I'm so glad. He's starting to get nice and fat like he's supposed to, in fact after the first appt. when they gave him the first batch of dewormer, he grew about 11 ounces, and I have no idea how much he has grown now after the Albon and second dewormer. He's definately at least an inch longer, and at least gained 20 ounces. He's got a gut building, and he is just so cute. I want to kiss him but he might bite. He has an attitude towards me now since I had to force all that nasty medicine into him.

>>Oh, and now I find out that my friend who got a beardie at the Sacramento show a month back is treating it like crap and I need to get it away from him. Apparently it wasn't eating very much so he decided to try to force feed it (it was about 3 months old :S) and now it bites. Which is just great since I know how hard it is to train that out of a beardie from all the posts I have seen in the past.

>>Anywho, I'm hoping to get Sir George away from that kid soon so it can actually get a good home and get fet right. I wish I had never helped him get the beardie in the first place, which I think was a red phase beardie. Had large red patterns on its back. Beautiful lizard.

>>Oh, and found out my beardie is a boy. His little spiny things under the legs just came in when I found out he had coccidia, which is cool. Now I can keep an eye out for a girlfriend for him hehe.

>>

>>Anywho, thought I would let everyone know he is doing fine, getting fat, growing, being a little jerk, but cute all the same.

>>

>>Goodluck all the rest of you with your beardies.
