Hi
I have visited a new vet today to deworm my Russian tortoise Rufin. Did you ever heard/used febantel???? Lady gave me a tablet of this stuff to give at home. She didn’t ask about his appetite, poop or health so she hadn’t had a clue on what she’s doing (Honestly I just wanted a dewormer couse my Vet wasn’t available until 2 weeks or so and there is no easy/fast way to buy dewormer in Poland). Besides her lack of knowlage, I thought she will use Fenbendazole..Will this febantel work? I searched for use on tortoise and didn’t find any except some zoo in Taiwan? It’s commonly used for cats and dogs. But there is no information for reptiles. @zovick@Tom @ZEROPILOT what do you think? From what I found it will be ingested and metabolized, should I try or wait for a “normal” visit or Pancur to arrive?
