Well, I went in for a checkup from the last one when he was found to have round worms and guess what....the dreaded word just has to come up. They found coccidia and some other parasites that didn't show before in him. I know where it came from now...cross contamination between him and another lizard I had. Sigh..well he's on newspaper and I have industrial strenght non-toxic disinfectant.

know that really sucks, but be persistant and scrub scrub scrub and your dragon will be parasite free in no time, a lot of work right now will go a long way later, have to be real vigilant against coccidia or youll never beat it down, best of luck!
