A FEW
TESTIMONIALS:
DRAGONS:
Nicole, Bearded
Dragon keeper:
"I recently purchased a bottle
of Reptaid from Chameleons NorthWest for a dragon
that has a Respiratory Infection so bad that it
sounded like he was burping when he breathed and his
nostrils where caked in crust the infection came on
suddenly after we had lost power for a day and our
generator unfortunately failed. I have only had him
on this product for two days no and am seeing great
improvements where antibiotics could do nothing
there is a huge reduction in the "Lung Noises" and
his nostrils are 95% clear he is eating like a pig
and very active his colors are brighter and he no
longer seems depressed. I would highly recommend
this product why put your dragons immune system
threw the stress of an antibiotic when Reptaid can
help? It is all natural and organic and very safe to
use along with very well priced it can deal with
everything from Respiratory Infections to Parasites,
Coccidia, and many other ailments.
"
Also from Nicole: "A
female bearded dragon I rescued had a nasty case of
mouth rot and in many cases mouth rot can't be
treated in bearded dragons. I had great success with
this on a dragon with a Respiratory Infection so I
decided to give it a try and in about 10 days the
females mouth rot was 100% gone all of the swelling,
sores, and infection on her lips and gums had
disappeared she has a great appetite now and her
color is coming back she is much happier and will no
longer have to deal with useless ointments and
medications what the vet gave me did nothing in 2
months she was on it and in 10 days of using Reptaid
she was cured."
 
"thank you
for the quick shipping and the kindness. you helped
me out alot with the reptaid and other stuff. my guy
is already looking brighter. im getting a fecal on
my BD and my veiled
[chameleon] and i'll tell you how it goes....
UPDATE: its been 10 days now, and there is
noticeable improvement in my
bearded dragon (which came up
clean on the fecal yesterday) and both my chameleons
(also clean on the fecal exams). this stuff is
amazing thank you. my chams and my BD are much more
active, and WAY more calm. " -thank
you, nick
"I bought some last week with
my Sambava Panther from Chameleons Northwest. Gave
it to 3 of my dragons and I've seen a positive
change in their eating habits and weight gain.
Chameleons seem to be a little bit more delicate
than dragons, though it would seem they have similar
ailments. I was concerned about some runny poo, poor
appetite, and laziness. After just 3 days, I have
already noticed a difference. Weight gain and
activity have increased. While I am not a vet, and I
am in no position to recommend Reptaid for anyone
else. I am happy with what I see at this point.
I'll gladly post my experience with the product."

I just wanted to drop you an
email to thank you for introducing me to Reptaid. I
received my order a few weeks ago and immediately
started giving it to one of my male dragons who was
not eating and had parasite counts which were very
high. He had been given Albon to treat this and I
had seen no results besides him deteriorating
consistently despite my best efforts. Over the last
month he was deteriorating quickly. He refused food
of every kind and I had to supplement him just to
keep him going. Who knows what would have happened
if I didn't try Reptaid. I started giving reptaid in
a 3ml dose , he had dropped to just over 300g, and
within the first two days started eating greens and
a few insects. Within a week he was eating much
stronger and getting color back. Ten days after
giving him reptaid fecal went out again and he is in
the clear! It has been about three weeks and he is
putting weight back on fast. He eats like a horse
and is colorful and alert. Thanks again!

Patrick, Showtime Dragons
My little dragon, at 108 grams,
became sick. I was not sure if it was truly a
respiratory infection, but she was def. sick with
mucous and was coughing. I got the reptaid after she
had been showing these symptoms for a few days and
started immediately. In addition, I also raised the
temps in her tank about 12 or so degrees. I
was very skeptical of this product, and I was
worried about some of the ingredients, to be honest.
So, as I did use the product every day, I only used
it once, not twice. I administered the medicine to
Blaze every day for the full recommended time. By
the end of the span, Blaze was obviously feeling and
acting better. The thing is.. Blaze's appetite
never slowed, but she was grumpy. Now, Blaze, about
double what she weighed then, is doing just great. I
have not had to give her any more medicine, and she
is no longer coughing or having mucous. She is
happy. I am happy. To be completely honest, I can't
say for sure that this product made her better, as I
did use it in conjunction with extra heat and extra
hydration - but, I would say that I will keep it
around and use it again, if necessary. Blaze had
absolutely NO SIDE EFFECTS.
I
just want to say how Reptaid saved my little
beardie's (bearded dragon) life!! She got to the
point that she wouldn't eat and would lay flat in
the cage with her head held over her back. She was
so uncoordinated that she couldn't even climb. I
ordered Reptaid and gave her a couple drops twice a
day for a couple weeks. She is now back to normal.
She eats well and even climbs all over the cage now.
I really thought that she wouldn't make it. She was
so thin and liveless. Thank you so much for
this product. I definitely don't want to ever be
without it!!!
Hey Elliot. Ive been
administering him [bearded dragon] a dose of .03 and
im seeing amazing improvement as for pics I cant
send you any because we lost the camera :(. He is
much more active. I've even seen him jump
occasionally out of his cage now if I leave the vent
open which shows how much energy he has now. His
hunger has doubled and his poop is becoming more
solid. I will keep you posted on his condition.

My
bearded dragon had coccida and pin worms. I gave her
the right dose for 5 days. She was skinny and losing
weight everyday. When I got her she was 99g and
dropped to 94. She was eating but not too much and
tired all the time. Some of it was relocation stress
but after 5 days of reptaid she was a different
beardie. She eats and has gone up to 128g in about
two weeks. She runs to the food bowl has soon as I
put it down. I still need to take in her fecal
to test it. I hope it's negative.
I tried Reptaid because I
heard from other bearded dragon breeders that
are having great success with it. I found out
for myself that it really does work. I have a
baby male beardie who just stopped growing and
eating. I have been giving him Reptaid for a
little over a week and now he is eating on his own
again and he has put on a little weight. I
also have an adult male who gave himself a mouth
infection by slamming his face into the side of his
tank bobbing at the ladies. I am currently
giving him Reptaid and his mouth is almost healed.
Thank-you so much. ForLoveofDragons,
Janice
Snow bearded
dragon with respiratory infection: No more RI,
his color well he's white so that didn't change but
his appetite and activity did. Worked well and
would recommended to others. Like all newer products
dosages will depend on animal and condition. And
should be used as described on instructions or less
at your own discretion. I also did some common
things like raising night temps, kept him hydrated,
and so forth. Two thumbs Up. Kevin, R&P
Dragons and Feeders
I have personally used Reptaid on my
bearded dragons,
and I can tell you, this stuff is amazing. My female
beardie, Athena, came to us overrun with parasites
and extremely stressed. After 10 days of Reptaid,
the diarrhea stopped and her fecal was clean. Her
gut flora was so healthy, in fact, that my vet
actually asked us what we were using and
wrote it down! I cannot recommend this stuff enough
for relocation stress and parasites. I would
recommend that anyone who has reptiles keep a bottle
on hand. It's awesome.
LEXI
CHAMELEONS:
"I was able to finish my first
course of treatment this weekend and wanted to share
with you how amazing I think the product is. I
treated a WC melleri [chameleon] that I thought was
in pretty good health. After the 10 days he
had a grip twice as strong and his color changed to
a more consistent color. He is more active. What a
difference. It may sound strange but I can tell he
is better off even though he really didn't seem ill.

"For lack of a better way to
put it...This stuff ROCKS! I used the original
version, and it's literally a miracle in a bottle.
Don't hesitate to buy this stuff. It will last you
forever. And it's completely natural!"

"I just want to thank you two
both for the great advice and support with my cham's
health. Many people get turned off because I can't
afford to go to a vet. I stoked to tell you
both, the next day after using Reptaid, my cham's
eye was open and moving around healthy. I also
noticed his color was rich and darker. "

"I own a 7 month old male
Ambanja Panther chameleon. He is in excellent
health (thank goodness). After reading about
your product on ChameleonForum, I decided to
purchase it BEFORE I had a need. I believe
that I am now well prepared to handle any of the
ailments that were listed as "treatable" with your
product. I highly recommend all Herp owners to
do the same." T.D.
I
bought a new panther, runt of his litter. He was 9
months old and only 36g, but beautiful colors. We
are calling him a pygmy panther, and he wasn't
shooting his tongue. He would run up to the cricket
and stick his tongue to it, then eat it. He showed
up positive for roundworms just a few days after the
Reptile show in Pomona where I met Elliot (but not
Sandy) and bought some Reptaid, just to have on
hand. I started this guy on the Reptaid for 10 days,
then 2 days off and repeated 10 days again. He
tested negative for roundworms at the end of the
treatment. He is starting to shoot his tongue
farther- out about 2 inches now vs 1/2 inch. He eats
like a pig and has gained 8 grams. I'm happy with
the results and will be checking for worms in a
couple weeks again. I had this in another thread,
but thought I would put a copy here as well. Thanks
for the great product!
I had a
small female veiled that seemed to have "given up on
life". she wouldn't eat, drink or move. When i
picked her up she couldn't even hold on. after 10
days of reptiaid she started eating and drinking on
her own again and now is doing great!!!
Just
FYI to those thinking of buying it I found this
product is working to reduce (and I expect will
eliminate) pinworms in an otherwise healthy male
panther. I also attribute it to a good, complete
shed that was overdue.
"I just
wanted to say that this product is AMAZING! My
[panther chameleon] girl seemed to almost have given
up. She wouldn't hiss or gape and she didn't hold my
fingers like she normally does. (Usually she
squeezes the crap out of them!) I gave her her first
dose and the next morning she looked a little better
and seemed to have more fight in her. Now, a few
days into the treatment, she is just about back to
normal! Her mouth rot looks a lot better (though not
completely gone yet.) I was afraid I might have to
put her down because nothing seemed to work very
well but now there is no chance of that happening!
I'm glad I bought this. She hasn't responded this
positively to any other treatments. "
TURTLES AND TORTOISES:
Reptaid seriously helped my
two, Gulf Coast box turtle and Greek tortoise, get
over their ailments. I have been re-treating
the Greek because he is better but not the best yet.

OTHER REPTILES (SNAKES, MONITORS, GECKOS):
From Ashley, Burbank

I have been using
Reptaid XL on my snake Cujo, which is a 11ft
Burmese python, for approximately 3 weeks on
her respiratory infection. In only 3 weeks I
have seen a huge improvement in my snakes
overall behavior. Not only is she up all the
time wondering her cage, she has no more
sneezing or wheezing coming from her mouth,
and no more spit strands all over the cage
walls. She has had that respiratory
infection for a year now on and off. I had
taken her to the vet twice for the same
infection. I have given her baytril and
amakacin. Both medications had worked, but
only for a small amount of time. Now
everyone knows a big snake is hard to heat
up, but my room temp is almost 90 degrees so
I know it's not me doing something wrong. I
tried Reptaid XL for the 3 week time and
amazingly Cujo is doing great. I had
administered a does of 0.5ML to a
medium/large rat every 3 days. Most people
would think feeding a snake that much isn't
recommended, but honestly there is
absolutely nothing wrong with feeding a
snake more then once a week, as long as your
feeding it smaller meals then its average
feeding meal. My snake on average eats a 7pd
rabbit, so medium/large rats for her is a
treat. I am very happy with my results using
Reptaid and will continue to administer a
dose every time I fed Cujo on her regular
feed schedule just to keep her nice and
healthy and for the extra love that Reptaid
does besides curing parasites and
infections.

From Mark Kovel, Mainelypets:
I am a
partner in an exotic reptile store (Mainely Pets) in
Rochester, NH and we have animals coming and going
all the time. Anyone owning a reptile store knows
that you are going to get a sick animal now and
then. We had a young lemon pastel ball python (180
grams) come into the store and he looked healthy
when we received him. After about a week I noticed
him blowing bubbles and gasping for air. He had a
very bad case of respiratory infection. I have seen
animals at this stage that were treated with
antibiotics and still did not survive. I was at a
show and I overheard someone talking about Reptaid
and how well it worked for respiratory problems. I
figured for $30.00 it was worth a try and much
cheaper than a vet visit for $150.00 with no
assurance that the antibiotics would work. I read
the directions and administered the dose for his
size not really knowing how this would turn out.
When I started the treatment he could not even close
his mouth as he was gasping for so much air. On top
of this he also went into shed, which also added
stress to him. To say the least it looked rather
gloomy. I continued the dosage every day as
prescribed for 10 days like it said. At the end of
10 days his infection was not completely gone but
amazingly he was about 75 percent better. I rested
him for 2 days and started a second treatment as the
instructions indicated. After 15 days the infection
was completely gone, he had shed in the process, was
more alert and lively than I had ever seen him. He
also took his first meal after a 6-week period. I
was so impressed with the Reptaid that I [became] a
distributor for this awesome product so that I could
offer our customers an alternative solution from an
expensive vet bill as well as give them a product
that I know works first hand..Mark Covell, Mainely

From Ron Greenberg, Ron's
Reptiles:
Trial #1 Texas Bull Snake, 5 years old. Had
been eating and loosing weight. I tried
panacure and flagyl (usually works) and there was no
change. Used 1 droper of Reptaid in a
prekilled mouse...fed the snake every other day for
5 feedings (10 days). It has been three weeks
since the last dose and the snake is gaining weight
(feces are normal). I expect a full recovery.
Trial #2 Black Throat Monitor (about 30 lbs.) Has
been eating rats without issue for several years.
Recently went completely off feed for a few days.
I got her interested in chicken parts and started
liberally (3 droppers per 1/4 lb chicken) adding
Reptaid. After a week of chicken parts she has
regained her interest in rats and is eating as if
there was never an issue.
Trial #3 Leopard Gecko, about 6 mos old started
going "downhill" and was not responding well to
medication. We diluted the Reptaid and gave it
directly by mouth for 7 days. The gecko
initially seemed to show no change. We
continued to feed Phoenix worms and crickets and
now, several weeks later I can't tell which Gecko
was the sickly one when they are all back together.
In
each case I believe that the Reptaid helped make a
difference as I have seen these symptoms before in
other animals that did not do well following
conventional treatments. Ron Greenberg, Ron's
Reptiles, Chico, CA
So far I have been using
Reptaid for about a week on Sophie, my iguana, on
Norman, my marginated tortoise, and on Discount, my
c.tenosaura pectinata. Sophie's appetite is
back and she is eating everything in site. I
will be weighing her probably tomorrow to how much
she has gained since starting the Reptaid.
Norman is so much more active since using Reptaid,
he was always an eating machine, but now spends much
more time out and about. Discount... well,
he's just Discount... haven't seen much change in
him..
TREATING FROGS
WITH REPTAID
A frog
breeder in Palatine Illinois named Dan has developed
a way to treat frogs with reptaid. He has had some
amazing results with his frogs already and I want to
share with you the details of his testimonial about
his success with Reptaid and frogs.
Frogs do not normally drink
water like other animals. They absorb moisture
through their skin. So I had the idea to try adding
Reptaid to their water dish so when they came down
to soak in the water they would absorb some Reptaid
also. But I had a number of frogs who just
didn’t come and sit in the water, so I decided to
prepare a way to soak them in water mixed with
Reptaid. I mixed the Reptaid with the water
and put the solution in a glass mason jar.
Then I put the frog into the jar with the mixture
and left him in there for about 20 minutes a day.
I only used enough water for the various species of
frogs I was treating. The larger the frog, the more
water/Reptaid mixture I used. For the smaller
frogs I used just a small amount of water so the
frog was sitting in the water but not too deep.
The mixture I used was .1ml of Reptaid per 8oz
of water. Here are some of the amazing
results.
White’s
Tree Frogs
I have a mating pair of White’s
Tree Frogs who have been sleeping all the time ,
eating very little and never mating. They are
silent at night, never calling to each other.
This has been going on for some time. So
I put 1 cup of water with the .1ml of Reptaid in a
quart size glass mason jar and placed the frogs in
the water one at a time. I left each one
in there for 20 – 30 minutes. I discarded the
solution every day. After just 3 days of
treatment, I heard them calling to each other in
their enclosure. I had not heard that
wonderful sound in a long long time. They are eating
and moving about and croaking just like normal
healthy frogs again. Whatever was wrong with
them, Reptaid surely helped make it right.
Waxy
Monkey Tree Frog
I had a clutch of waxy’s
hatch recently. Most of the little frogs
now weigh 40 grams. But one little guy only
weighs 7 grams and I really thought he was just
going to perish. So I tried the Reptaid in the
water in the jar but I only used a little bit of
water because he is so small. After a few days
of treatment, the little guy was eating very well.
Now, one month later he weighs 20 grams and is
quickly catching up with his clutchmates. This
is nothing less than a miracle.
