Hey there, so I have two dragons, just under a year old.
I have noticed that they have irregular bathroom cycles, inconsistent fecal quality, and inconsistent appetite.
I suspect that they have coccidia/pinworm problem, as they were on crickets for a good time, changed tanks, and moved recently.
They are enclosed with a 46in wide, 22in deep, 20in high melamine tank.
-The left side has a full light spectrum, reduced eye fatique white flourescent bulb (from http://www.reptileuv.com/)
- The Middle is just a heat bulb, UV A.
- The right is a 100 Watt MegaRay MV bulb, its built into the tank to keep it at a safe distance.
-The dragons can get from 17 inches to 12in of the bulb.
The substrate is paper towels, and I just put all the furniture in the oven to kill any parasites, and will continue to do that of course.
- The temp ranges from 88 to 115.
My staple feeder of late has been Superworms, with repcal calcium, and flukers vits. I have been( last two weeks on/off) supplementing Epic's, smaller ones, diet with small doses of ensure (non dairy) to make sure she gets calories and stim appetite.
My staple veggie is collard greens.
Their activity is good, but i am concerned with their digestion, and appetite.
I have made preparations, and tried to get all that I expect I would need to do a pinworm/coccidia cleanse.

-Acidophiliz +
-Panacur
-Albon (already diluted from Beautiful dragons)
-Nolvasan
-Nekton Rep multivit powder
- RepCal no D3 calcium powder
- Flukers Multi Vit, Powder with hypo-caratene
- Repta-Aid
- Butternut Squash Babyfood
- Chicken Babyfood
- Nondairy ensure
-Syringes
I do Need to get them weighed, but if someone could give me a walk thru of exactly what do to do, dosages pending their weights, that would be great.
Yesterday, I gave them multiple drops of acidophiliz+, Nekton Rep vits, and calcium, with ensure to keep it tastey yesterday. And kept the temp high. I later got a larggge, poop from (Reign), the big one, and it wasnt well digested. Today, after massaging Epic, she did a small poop, that also was not well digested.

ps- I also have some baytril, and liquid calcium around as well.
