Ok so after having the fecal done we got 4+ results for Eimeria. The vet however didn't know much about beardies and he was struggling with the math for the dosage of Albon, from i heard he diluted the albon in water i think one part medicine and 9 parts water... Charlie weights 200gr and i am giving him .1ml a day of the diluted medicine... i hope it is the right dosage... then he went on to attempt to force the medicine down his throat completely unsuccesful i didnt even let him try i told him i would give him the medicine myself and sure enough all i had to do was place a drop of the medicine on the tip of his mouth and he licked it off and as soon as he opened his mouth i gave him the rest. The vet didn't tell me to do anything else he said to keep feeding him the same and everything, he did say that beardies are mostly vegetarian and i shouldn't give him too many crickets... now Charlie is 5 months old... so i would say he still needs his protein right? so i am still offering as many crickets as he wants to eat... he's slowed down his eating... but he was eating a lot like 100 crickets a day... now he eats like 50 or 60... so im not too worried about him not eating... i do need some advise as to the side effects of the medicine. I took his sleep log and his blanket out for during the day, as i found him hiding there a couple of times during the day... im still offering the veggies even though he doesnt eat much of those... so is there anything in particular i should be doing... again he is taking albon once a day for 21 days...
thanks~~
