I took a fecal sample to the vet today and my new King Cobra has parasites. He wants to give Ivermection and Panacure. What do yall think? Sean

This book was reviewed by Chris Harper on the SHHS website. I also found it to be a "must have" for and reptile keeper.

The book prefers Panacure because of it's low toxicity in reptiles. The author says "25-50 mg/kg given once every 7 days till neg stool is found." Usually takes 3 doses that can be injected into the snakes food. Which is always better than you sticking a feeding tube down a Kings throat.

Good Luck
