My beardie had a fecal test done and it came back with a trace of pinworms. What exactly is that, how would he have contacted it, how is it treated and how do you keep it from re-occurring. Any knowledge will be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Pinworms are pretty simple to get rid of. The vet will probably give you panacur. During the treatment, your beardie may lose his appetite, that is normal. Just make sure to keep everything clean. You can also get some acidophillz+ to replenish the good gut flora that the panacur might kill, that will keep him from getting an upset tummy. Good luck :D

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
