Guys,

When your torts get parasites, where do you get Flagyl ? Do I have to take my torts to the vet and get this medicine ? Thanks.

jesst is right. Take in a ecal sample first to confirm if and what parasites you might have first. Your vet may recommend something other than Flagyl depending on what is found. If you do need Flagyl, your vet will need to prescribe it.

different meds for different parasites..
There are things you can get at the feed store.. but you need to know what you are treating first.
and NO Ivermectin!!!

Flagyl suspension isn't available for a reason. It would be abused to the point of being un-effective if it wasn't........Unless you go to Mexico.......They drink the stuff down there......
