So I made a few post worried about my tort not gaining weight. Today i got his feces tested and he has pinworms and hookworms. The vet is gonna give me panacur or whatever it is called on monday. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this. The options are a liquid given by mouth, powder on his food or a shot. He said the mouth liquid is the best and most effective option. Has anyone ever done this and if so how can i get him to open his mouth to administer the medication? I am worried about stressing him out. Also once he is dewormed do I then need to clean out his enclosure? Also what about his outdoor enclosure? Any advice would be greatly appreciated thank you.
