Just remembered Tiny Tortoises do a chart too, it might help.
I don't think you need to re test , it will do the job. I treated my juveniles at just over 100 grms. I would keep Darwin on news paper while you are treating him. Personally I wouldn't treat the others if their worm counts are low.

You would treat them? Ok, I'll do that. I thought I should as they are all in together. I'm just waiting for 1 more bulb to come then I'll be moving the smallest one as per my other thread about her not gaining weight.
I hate putting them on paper. Bless them. But it's only temporary. Shall I do it for the month or just the 2 weeks? Thanks Suze xx

Oh right. Thank you. I was thinking last night should I or shouldn't I. I'm still waiting for a sample from the smallest one. xx
I've got the panacur now x

Oh thank goodness , I panicked when I saw your post, silly me!
Which Panacur have you got? I would double check the doses with a vet or Tiny Tortoises (they do a chart ) They don't like the tast, I usually discise it in a flower or something they can't resist. Tiny tortoises doesn't seem to be there any more.

I found it on totally tortoise. It's a calculator where you enter their weight and it tells you the dose.
http://www.totallytortoise.co.uk/gui...-fenbendazole/ I also double checked it by working out the mg/kg just incase. I've wormed Darwin She took it well(ish) on radicchio and some softened butternut squash. They're now on newspaper, much to their disgust. No one is eating their food The wrong uv bulb came to move out the smallest tort so she has to wait a bit longer, though I'm off to pet's at home to have another look for the right ones, hopefully they'll have them. Stupidly I didn't think to look earlier.

Hi Becci
I got the panacur paste ( kitten and puppy 18.75%) and mixed it with grated carrot and one of them took it but the other didn't so I mixed it with mushed up strawberry and he ate it up. I used one graduation for the two of them(searched on here for panacur paste dosage) Am now just waiting to see what happens. Have put them on newspaper which they hate. Good luck with yours.
