Seems the fawn I have been trying to treat for six weeks has giardia. Has anyone encountered this in a fawn and what did you use to treat?
 
Brett,


Metronidazole treatment by pills will fix giardia.  Also Valbenzen wormer is a treatment.  Treat to body weight.  I went with metronidazole in pill form and it works great.
 
I have been recommended to give safeguard pellets by our vet. Also treating your water will not hurt. Nasty stuff to deal with, best of luck.
 
I think I may be dealing with Giardia. Can you get a stool sample done for that?


Also where can you get Metronidazole?
