Hey guys my baby Pyxie quit eating and got my attention. I looked into it and there appeared to be worms in his feces. No experienced vets in my area so I'm ready to medicate with 10% fenbendazole (Panacur) and was wondering if anyone had any input, advice or experience in the matter. The "worms" looked like tiny grains of rice and were everywhere. I'm gonna do what I can, but I am realistic and don't expect good results with such a little guy.
thanx...

If you are feeding the frog adult crickets then the "worms" are potentially cricket eggs.
If you do a search for FRYE Brother's Frogs (or go to the amphibian classifieds) you can get a link for an amphibian vet that will run fecals that are mailed to him pretty cheaply, diagnose any parasite issues and prescribe a treatment as well get you the meds.
