Anyone know how many mg of flagle to give to a 7 foot boa?

Thanks Tom

I would recommend you speak with a vet--- and particularly the source of the drug--- about this. Improper dosage is not something to mess with.
The literature says that many drug products vary in their potency and may be sold in different concentrations, which means one bottle of Flagyl may have 50 milligrams of drug per cc (milliliter) of liquid and another may have 25 milligrams of drug per cc of liquid.
You'll also need to get a precise weight on the snake to determine an effective dosage.
Hope this is helpful.
All the best-
Jim
