[QUOTE="Beardielover9000, post: 2016303, member: 117247"] The syringes I bought online from Walmart, using the Walmart app. Pics will be down below of the exact syringes. ***I try not to reuse them, and especially if the syringe has been exposed to coccidia.*** The come in bulk, but trust me, you’ll need them all! I ended up ordering them twice. For three dragons, you’ll probably need more. You’ll have to throw out everything you have in their enclosures, if you want to be 100% safe. I ended up getting a whole new enclosure once their treatment was finished. I don’t know how exactly other people are sanitizing stuff, but as I said in an earlier reply, I used 50/50 bleach plus boiling water. You’ll have to do some independent research on it for sure, but I will as well and will report back with my findings:) My vet gave me instructions to give 3cc of medicine for coccidia treatment. They were also very young at the time, maybe just 4 months. I’m not an exotic vet, so I’m not confident to give advice on prescription doses. If you have questions about the doses, call and ask your vet. Take notes! My vet even showed me how to give it to them. If you think your vet would be willing to show you so you know you’re doing it correct, with correct dose, I would definitely ask them to. Food I would have to blend up a slurry using sugar free, flavorless pedialyte along with their normal greens. There is a PLETHORA of YouTube videos with excellent advice on anything related to feeding during treatment. I remember one of my babies wouldn’t eat at all. Our vet gave us this to supplement along with the pedialyte mixed in. This will be difficult. But I believe in you, and your beardies. They can definitely push through this. Just be sure to stay on top of things. I’ll be here for anything I can help with. OH YEA and use paper towels as substrate. Best substrate during treatment. You’ll have to disinfect wherever they poop immediately after they poop. Definitely keep your eyes on their weight. My vet gave us this as their food The blacked out stuff is just some personal info:) [/QUOTE]
