Default Just medicated my first viper!

Had to give some panacur to my waglers as no matter how nicely I asked the vet they refused to even let it in the surgery! So I got it out pinned it and squirted the syringe down it's throat all simple and no problems. Feeling proud now that I did it safely all by myself although the wife was there just in case.

I can understand it. They are my closest vets they will happily dispense meds if I tell them exactly what I want but they don't treat reptiles of any sort.

Was a bit worried about doing it but thought it out and planned exactly how I was going to do it beforehand and probably for the first time in my life it went exactly to plan!

Thanks guys.

Will take some pics and get them up as soon as I find my camera. Waglers not looking great hence the panacur. Envenomating prey but ont eating it. Will wait for it to get over the stress of today and then give it some flagilate as well hopefully that should do the job.
