Re: Worried about Miriam :-(
I guess flagellates are not eliminated by freezing
I was trying to find more info on that and it looks like they aren't

Re: Worried about Miriam :-(
I'm so glad you caught that!

I'm using yam baby food on a couple monitors since it's a natural de-wormer for lizards. Anyone know if that would work on snakes?

Re: Worried about Miriam :-(
Yams, pumkin seeds, tobacco are all natural dewormers, but I suspect that whatever chemicals in the plants are the active anti-parasitics are probably destroyed during the processing of the plant. So no, you don't get de-wormed by smoking. LOL

But the same de-wormers work for all species; just the concentration varies.
