My new AFT

[Bellalee]

the one I posted pictures and was very thin... is young but also is positive for worms, Coccidia, of course the vet I work with had absolutly no clue what to do.. and it's too late to call any rep vets here in CT, I have panacur suspension and anthleban..

what else have people treated theirs for?

http://wolfcreekranch.net/coccidia.html I just ordered this to keep on hand in case we encounter it.

Also http://wolfcreekranch.net/diatomaceous_earth.html this stuff is supposed to be great for worms and other things... read up on it on that page.

Panacure is known to be great for worms.
I knew he looked to thin to be a pig.
He should start to retain weight after you treat him.
Nice job on the quick stool sample!!

Make sure you keep him quarantined and wash your hands thoroughly after you work with him. Coccidia is very easily spread. You did the right thing by having him tested for parasites. :main_thumbsup:

Actually.. haha.. I went to work today.. I did the fecal myself.. gotta love working at a vets.. I have panacur, liquid... I'm going by the dog dose 55 mg/kg..

Problem though.. he doesnt like the panacur, it's EVERYWHERE... I have a syringe with a curved tip, that am using.

Just wanted everyone to know the little one didn't make it..

Just for future reference if you run into this issue again, do not use the dog dosage of panacur for reptiles, especially emaciated animals. If you need help with that stuff give me a ring, im a CVT down here in PA for a zoo.
