Sick Niger or other?

JDBLACKDOG Jan 03, 2004 01:10 PM

i ordered 1.1 yellows about a month ago on-line (larger respectable store?). he looks good, but could stand some more weight. she is small (sub-adult) and looks to thin still. her appitite is allmost nil. she is still skitish but is activly basking and burrowing (when no ones looking) i was hoping she just needed time to aclimate. i did inquire about the use of parasitic treatment, no response about that. where can i find info on panacur and doseges? or should she be given more time? for now i'll take her latest stool sample to my vet.

Panacur is harsh and lots of time, can do more damage than good. Do not use it without being certain it has parasites. Get a fecal.
