PLEASE HELP IS THIS TAIL ROT (SICK BEARDIE)

[Ahechme]

HE HAS HOOK WORMS What do I do they just want me to continue giving him the medications. Should I don't hat or should I not.

 

[Ahechme]

It turns out the right vet was not here when I came. The specialist was gone and she is back today. So I complained and they waived my visit fee. But he has hook worms. They said he has alot. And to. Give him panacur again in 6 days for 3 more days. And do it every 7 days for two weeks.

If he has a high amount of hookworms then he may need the meds, but since he looked worse last time you gave him meds. I would be leery of whether he really should be given the dose they were giving him. I really don't know what to tell you.

Have you tried the soy yogurt yet ?

 

[Ahechme]

I have not tried soy yogurt I have been giving him powdered non dairy probiotics instead and I mix it with his carnivore Care Powder in a little bit of calcium and a little bit of Blended veggies they told me to feed him half the amount I was feeding him but to do it 6 times a day instead of 3 times a day so that way I don't stress them out too much they said that all reptiles have hookworms but when they get to a larger extent is when they are actually starting to affect him negatively so she said to do the panacur and come back in 2 weeks so we can check out another stool sample I looked at another hookworm thread on here on this page and it looks like the vet had told that lady the same thing to do the panacur 4 three weeks every other seven days for three days and then stop and come in for another stool sample

That sounds reasonable. I mentioned the soy yogurt because some dragons like it enough that if you put it on their insects he might eat them. Have you fed him any superworms ?

 

[Ahechme]

He won't eat anything large in size.

now i know its probably not tail rot but i only got him yesterday and he has a kink in his tail

If his tail falls of, just buy raw honey to put on it. (I know what you are thinking. "RAW HONEY!?!? Why would you put raw honey on the tip of a tail!?!?") But, it does help with the healing, and it might save you some money :wink: :laughing6:

This is quite an old thread you're replying to. And actually quite a few people here use raw honey, it's recommended quite often on this site.
