Is it possible to get pinworms from feeders?
I got hornworms for the first time from dubiaroaches .com and when the worms came in they had these small white worms in the cup with them. I separated the tiny white worms from the hornworms as best I could but now I'm wondering if those tiny white worms were pinworms.
the small white speck in the red circle I believe is a pinworm.
I had a fecal test done on my bearded dragon as a 2x a year precaution and this time it came back positive for pinworms. I'm about to go buy the medicine for my beardie along with a probiotic but I'm just wondering if my beardie was exposed through the hornworms which were really the only change to diet in the last 6 months.
My dragon seems fine for now, other than he hasn't been eating much, but his weight hasn't decreased any so I'm not super worried. Hopefully the dewormer will make his appetite come back. This time I'm going to stick with my home bred dubia roaches, occasional superworms from amazon, and occasional crickets from the petstore. Even though I hate crickets because they smell awful, sometimes that's all my dragon wants to eat.
