Rebecca Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 You should be able to obtain acidophilus at any Health shop. There is some sold in capsules which you can break open and use the powder inside but remember those tablets are designed for human weights! Have you checked that this product is suitable for use with reptiles? If your vet is uncertain he could give one of the specialist centres a ring. Hope your dragons are ok.

They have experience in treating beardies. Main thing is you have to keep cage spotless whilst treating to prevent reinfection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonz1833 Posted August 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 hi can u remember the name of it at all i got told to use normal acidolphilis from health store and cut down the casules but not that keen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoon Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 i cant remeber the name of it but it was dirt cheap and come in lil sachets but u would need to get it from a vet so depending on wether they charged u consultation fees or not wether its worth it, it is just a bacteria based thing to restore good gut bacteria, in saying that ur health food capsules would proabably work too i dont think its the sort of thing u could over dose on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
