Nature Zone SNZ59321 Reptile Worm Guard Powder

Just like everyone else I was so skeptical this would work, and I’m not 100% yet that it did, but here’s what I can tell you as of today. I was so hesitant giving my bearded dragon this powder simply because I was afraid of the effects and if it would actually work and not be anything that would harm him, I gave him the same amount of this as I would his calcium powder, and sprinkled it on his food, I know he doesn’t like it very much because he didn’t finish his food like he normally would but he did eat a few dried crickets that had the powder on it, prior to giving him this powder I saw blood in his stool, and his stool was not at all solid it was very runny and smelly. I took him to the vet a year ago and found out he had worms and parasites, just like any doctor bill for anything in the world it was so expensive and I didn’t mind paying it because I just want to make sure my baby is safe, healthy and I can insure I’m going to have him for as long as I am able to keep him alive, when I noticed blood in his stool this time didn’t particularly have the money to be able to take him but searched online to see if there was anything cheaper, I read the reviews and put my trust in random strangers that wrote some positive feedback and took the chance I noticed some strange behavior from him that I’d seen him do a few times and was scared it was because of the powder, he was dragging his belly across his tank and almost like sliding around like a snake and digging, I made sure he had water and sprayed him to make sure he wasn’t dehydrated, he then pooped and I still saw a tiny bit of blood, I made sure the poop was removed from his tank like I always do because of you didn’t know bearded dragons if they poop by their food or mix poop in their food it can cause them to get worms and tbr they might just eat their poop bc to them it looks like food to them just like when humans wipe and bite their nails you can also get worms. I let him out of his tank today to let him free roam, gave him a few blueberries and he got down and I noticed him sink and do his wiggle I knew it was time for him to poo, so I got a puppy pad and set it down and let him do his business and found NO BLOOD, and his poop was solid almost like a little human turd! I can not guarantee this worked 100% on everything because there is no way for me to tell unless I take a stool sample to the vet and get them to check it, but I’m just happy there is no blood and he seems to be much happier.

Performance is 5 stars but I gave it 4 because my bearded dragon does not like the taste. I recently took my beardie to the vet for a swollen joint on the front leg. I took this product with me to show the vet what I used to deworm him. The vet scoffed at me saying it’s just supplements, and that most likely he had parasites leading to his problem. The following day I took in a stool sample and was surprised to find he was parasite and worm free. Now I’m debating on whether to contest my bill considering my vet was wrong and my beardie has recovered from a likely sprain. This is his only time being to the vet and this was the only product I have ever used on him. Feeding my bearded dragon was a little tricky at first. He wouldn’t eat it dry on lettuce so I typically use a baby Motrin syringe to feed him a liquid mixture like directions tell you too. If you’ve never done this before, like me, look at videos online on how to orally or syringe feed your bearded dragon. It’s hard to describe the technique but once you view a video it’s really not too difficult. The only complaint I have is they don’t provide a dosage to weight chart at all so it’s really a guess but everything in it is all natural and won’t hurt if overdosed. I did 1.85ml (liquid mix) and he was fine afterwords. Main ingredient looks like pumpkin seed which is also an all natural dewormer for dogs and cats as well.

I’m always hearing about people’s beardies dying from parasites and I’m hoping this stops that from happening to mine

It seams to be helping.
