if its a liquid I always put the dose on the underneath the end of a piece of lettuce. That way if they sniff the food they miss the dose which is underneath & then woof it down.

I always use an oral syring and put it straight down their throats. But im happy to hold and open their mouths.

I can count the number of times I've wormed my tortoises on one hand. Never saw a need to do unless it was confirmed worms were present.
