first things first, i bought my monitor at a herp show in white plains last April as a hatchling, so i am assuming that he is about 8 months old even though i don't know for sure he was 19 dollars and in great health when i purchased him, and has stayed very healthy ever since this happened, for all i know he could be wild caught but there really is no way of telling at this point. he is still secreting some feces from his vent and i have been soaking him regularly and feeding him vegetable oil which seems to be helping, second i should have not even posted the seizure part it turns out to just be stress related because he cannot at this point pass this from his system. the only reason i suggested the use of panacur was because I thought he may have had a brain parasite. I'm a college student at the moment majoring in wildlife management and have taken several courses in herpetology and herpetoculture dealing with all kinds of snakes, lizards, and amphibians. i know the result of panacur and also know how to treat IE proper dosage, etc... (panacur can also be purchased at animal supply stores, because it not only treats reptiles but dogs,cats and horses) if this problem continues for the next few days i will end up taking him to a vet, but for now he shows signs of improvement. and just for the record i posted this feed for help, not so i could be scrutinized for assuming the age of my monitor and be second guessed about the treatment i was going to give him I have an extensive background in herpetology and understand what i am doing.
