Gastrointestinal parasites

[Kurt]

Just about every amphibian I have tested has tested positive for gastrointestinal parasites. Only my dart frogs and White's treefrogs came up negative. My vet says that 95% have gastrointestinal parasites and some of the worst cases he has seen have been in captive bred animals, for some reason. Its a lot of the reason I automatically treat for them with new animals.

Wouldn't it be nice to post a "how to" treat your frogs for parasites? An owner could print it and bring it to their vet, in case the vet isn't savvy with frogs/amphibians.

Does that mean you want me to write something?

you should. I think that's a great idea.

[John]

Yes that's exactly what it means. Run it by me first please so I can check the science.

OK I will try to get to it this week.
