I can't imagine putting anything into guppie's body (too small) and Kleo's is the greatest when it comes to avoid any smelts that smell wrong. And pinkies... You know she's eating them like a child forced to eat a brussels spourts, right?

Yep, it's Kleo in all her might...

Oral suspension liquid is much easier to deal with.
Most Vets. will give you a syringe to use. Use the blunt tip of the syringe to get the snakes mouth open.
Push the syringe down past the back jaw and into the throat. Then you simply inject the med. and your done.
I've never had a snake throw it back up.

My God, Steve... You know that it will make Kleo hate me for the rest of her (or mine) life, right?

[RedSidedSPR]

Nah, she'll get over it real quick. She won't really see it as you..

[Bart]

Oh yeah? Last time I've messed with Kleo, she refused to eat for over a week. Those little buggers do remember thing very well.

[RedSidedSPR]

Well, it'll be worth it. And she will get over it, even if it takes awhile. It's your only option.

[Bart]

Yeah, I know. So I must wait until Kleo poops, put it in the bag and go to the vet to examine it, right? How much time I have between Kleo poops and me getting to the vet with her "product"? I mean, how long the eggs of parasites can be detected?

They will mix it with water and do a spin to get rid of the big chunks.
Then they will let it sit so the eggs will collect at the top. Then a slide is laid on top where they collect the sample for viewing.
I think the fresher(yeah, right) the sample the better but eggs can be viewed from dry samples.

[RedSidedSPR]

I'm eating here

[Bart]

Ok, thanks, both of you. I think I know what should I do. More or less.
