Finally I got down to business and did my first float, and found what I believe to be Coccidia and Pinworms.. Can anyone verify? Note this fecal sample was from a Bearded Dragon, But Im putting this in the health section as it can be beneficial to others for Chameleons.. I also have a video I will link in and note a few spots.

Im no poop expert but from referring to other photos. pinworms and coccidia FTL.

I received my microscope the other day. I want to go poop hunting but cant till i get some slide covers!

Edit: For the POOP TIP OF THE DAY!!
If you use a tea strainer dedicate it to your fecal exams and do not use it for human food.

Tea strainer for fecals?:confused:
Great shots!! Yep Pinworms and coccidia and pretty text book at that. What power were these all on? 400x? Excellent!!!

Thanks Rob, Yes they were all on 400x:)
 
Wonder if you would pick at your tongue like when you have a hair on it? it could be a little salty to,..
 
I have Panacur to treat for the Pinworms, but nothing for the Coccidia... I know Albon is used, but she is a small dragon and Id be afraid to OD her. Do I have any other options?
 
Yep Flagyl and Panacur for the pin and Ponazuril for the coccidia....and lots of 40vol and or Virkon S

Luckily I went out today and got a ton of 40vol, turns out the first stuff I bought was the "creme" lol. Ill be ordering some Virkon S once the 40 is gone. You know any website I can get Ponazuril from w/o a script? Vet charges me 55 for an exam on a animal before issuing any meds:mad:
 
Wowzers..200 for a tube of that stuff!

Clark: gets yours under control yet?

Close but not yet:eek: But my WC came in far cleaner than the CB chams I got from a forum sponsor:eek::eek: I am going to have to go back at them with Panacur :mad::mad:

I thought from my fecal the Faly was clean but the vet check this Friday turned up under 10 on the slide of coccidia :( So one more treatment should cover it I would think if my cleaning is good.

I don't. I know of a good pharmacy that will compound it that is close to my office but I haven't figured out if they will sell me any:confused: I got mine from my vet...
