Have you seen eggs or segments in fecal samples? I personally would not treat a snake for worms unless I have identified a problem. Fenbendazole at 25 mg/kg and Droncit at 8 mg/kg will eliminate the vast majority of nematode worms, tapeworms, and flukes. Dose once every two weeks for three doses. You may need to get these drugs through a vet and probably use them under vet supervision unless you are already familiar with their use. Also, if you can't do your own fecal analysis on the snake, you will need to go through the vet anyway. Good luck,

Kelly
