ok i am at a loss and need help bad. My vet i went to was very bad and did not help and wont work with me. This is my last resort for help or i feel that my beardie is going to waste away and die. I took her to the vet and was positive for coccidia for 2 times and every day i was deep cleaning the cage with bleach solution. i took everything porous out of her cage and have been switching out clean shelf liner substrate and sterilite container basking spot. I cant get that special cleaner off the internet because my bank will not let me order from certain sites. idk if that is the problem or not that its just not killing the coccidia or not. also she when she was on the sulfa drug she would not eat but she would be more active and poop. I finally found a place in my area that sold bene bac and started giving that to her and now she will eat but is lethargic and not pooping. My vet did not do a coccidia count and just threw the meds at me to give her. so could i possibly be medicating for the wrong thing? i now know it was just a vet tech that looked at the sample and just saw coccidia then the vet came in and gave me the meds. Also all she will eat is wax worms and is like scared of crickets. she is only about 14 inches long and was thinking super worms would be better but i have heard that they have to be 16 inches. idk what to do anymore and find this site much more helpful than a so called "herp vet" that is in my area. please help me out here.
