parasites?

[Georgia]

Just wondering if there is a deworming protocol for reptiles. I've read a few different things on deworming and different protoza not necessarily being harmful... I had a fecal exam done for my Chinese Water Dragon 'Austin' a year ago or so and it was negative. I'm just noticing my Chameleons poop looking a little different that usual. My dogs and cats are dewormed regularily and I want to make sure I'm taking care of my reptiles as best as possible. any thoughts on this matter???

You should get a fecal done first because different drugs treat different things. So just using a deworming drug doesn't mean you're actually treating what needs to be treated since you don't know what's there. And maybe there's nothing there! Fecal first.
