[QUOTE="franklinsbiggestfan, post: 2012045, member: 117195"] My bearded dragon, Franklin, was taken to the vet with concerns of mouth rot. She was cleared for mouth rot and instead suggested to have early signs metabolic bone disease from her previous owners which caused a slight underbite. She has a lot of saliva buildup on the sides of her mouth. I figured that was just due to the underbite, however the vet found coccidia and pinworms which might be causing the thicker saliva. I was given oral medication to give her. I wasn't sure what I should do in terms of keeping her enclosure clean and ensuring the parasites are gone for good. I figure the parasites might also be from the previous owners. Although it's hard to say, I try to be proactive about cleaning up feces and uneaten food as well as wiping everything down once a week. She currently has reptile carpet, just due to the fact that she is a juvenile and I didn't want to risk impaction. I have paper to replace the carpet with while she is receiving treatment. I'm not sure what else I should do to make sure the parasites don't infect her again. [/QUOTE]
