Reptaid?

Anyone have any experience using this stuff? I have a bearded dragon (baby) that goes on and off food, pretty sure he's stressed as I've never had this problem. I've since covered his tank to keep him from seeing me, and thought it might be beneficial to treat with Reptaid (at least, from what I'm reading it's supposed to do). Would LOVE to hear your experiences with it! Thanks!

It does work very well if you use it correctly. You have to follow the dosing and treatment length. Never used it on stress though. It did wonders for parasites.

Thanks! It wouldn't be for treating stress obviously, but to increase appetite.

I would recommend reptiad, but do you have any idea what may be causing the stress? Is he a recent arrival?

I got him earlier this year but just recently moved, so I'm guessing it's mainly that.

If so, maybe he can recover from it on his own with increased temperatures and food variety, unless it's been going off and on for some time.

can you use it for ball pythons? I have a male green ghost that will not feed at all.

Ball pythons refuse to eat for many reasons...force feeding reptaid may make the problem worse. Are you feeding live or f/t?

It really depends how big the ball is. If it's less then 200 grams I would say yes, 300 - 500 less effective, over 500 not all that effective. I used on balls so i say this from experience.

It's been since we moved here (3 months or so?). He won't eat outside his tub, or if I'm near his tank, but by the time I'm out of view and he's confident enough, most of the roaches are out of the bowl and under the paper towels. He's stubborn Haha.
