    you can take the needle off the syringe all-together (unless it's a one-piece), and just squirt the meds into the mouse's gut through the throat, once it's defrosted
    just make sure to stick it down the throat far enough that the snake won't be able to squeeze it back out if the mouse goes down the wrong way

    It is the one piece design. I do have one without a needle and I did attemp to squirt the Panacur down the pinkies throat but there's too much if it.
