Wow!
This to me is quite interesting. In South Africa this would be totally illegal!
I had a look at the website (
http://www.beautifuldragons.com) and totally agree that it is very important to deworm reptiles and in particular, because of their poor hygiene, bearded dragons.
BUT, that is why veterinarians study for 7 years (in SA, not sure about USA?). They know when to deworm. Not all dragons with parasites in their stools should be dewormed! In fact they MUST NOT!
If you guys deworm beardeds every time you see parasites or their eggs in the stool then you will very soon sit with a real and massive problem! You are creating what is called 'super worms'! These are parasites that are resistant to anthelminthic remedies.
Also in South Africa a layperson (like the owner at beautiful dragons) are by law not allowed to sell medication especialy scheduled drugs like Baytril, Flagyl and amoxycillin).
What does the law say about this in USA?
