Hey guys my turtle is still alive and still eating and its been like 1 week or so since he was giving ivermectin. people in the snapping turtle forum say that is deadly which i believe. how do i know if my guy will be alright from kidney problems. if anyone has any advice on how he will be its been like a week i think he will be alright because of the small dosage but if anyone has any info that would be awesome im just nervous he might have a smaller life span now because of this and what not thanks alot guys DREW

Despite your valid concerns for your turtle, I hope that you have made your vet aware of the huge mistake. Otherwise, it will only happen again.
