My beardie had a pretty severe infestation of coccidia a while back and lost a lot of weight. His coccidia is now cleared up, but I cannot seem to put any weight back on him. Its been a few months now but he just doesn't seem to gain any weight. I've tried crickets, night crawlers, pinkies, fuzzies, dry food, wax worms, etc. and have not had any luck. If anyone has any ideas about some good fattening food, please let me know. He does eat, just doesn't gain weight. Thanks, Andy S.

hi
you try to give him good bacterias??
so he digest his food good .
you can buy capsules in humanhealthstores.
achidohpulus is the name there r milions of bacterias in the capsule and maybe they nutirence he eat come good into his system and maybe this can work.
specialy if you also gave him medicines against coccidia !
i also would recomend parazap i have good results with it and made beardie stronger in his imume system to.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try it out and see if it helps.

butterworms work well for fattening up = ) it also has ALOT of calcium
