My beardie has been diagnosed with coccidia and I just got the medication for it. (PONAZURIL) I am having trouble getting him to take it and am wondering if any one has tips to make ita little easier. I put the syringe into his mouth, towards the back and dispensed a small amount which came right out of his mouth. I wiped it up with my finger and he licked some of it off but I have no idea how much he got. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

There are a few good youtube videos, sometimes watching someone do it is more helpful than having it explained. Still, you'll probably get a few suggestions from the friendly folks here.

Thanks I didn't think to look on youtube but that is where I am going now!

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
