Hey guys, now ive done alot of thread searches for a start. I have 5 beardies,the boy has coccidia, the boy on hes own im assuming started the problem?they are ALL on baycox injections (was there final dose today, and repeating it again in two weeks) but the male always licks hes poo. ive observed him doing it a number of times, even though all cages are cleaned out daily he will poo then in a matter of minutes start licking it(i think because its shiny) now is there anything i could prevent this happening?ive started wiping the mess out AS SOON as its done which he tends to do once ive stripped hes bedding but coz i work also its hard to get to it immediatly. hes had it for a week and a half and im not sure if the treatment will even help if he licks it straight after hes done it. Anyone else observed this happening?just wanted some thoughts from everyone for it. im doing my best to slove it but cant stop him licking it. hes fed salads everyday and insects and syringe fed A/d prescription diet food to boost him along with calcium and vitamins.
 
Normally(well what I have done) is give oral Baycox for 3 days, then refaecal in 5 days.If -ve no need to reworm.
 
cool thanks heaps. i have dosed him for 5 days, well they said 3 to 5 daysso i thought i should do the full amount(5 days.) ok so i will do a feacal on them tomorrow.thanks heaps
