Wednesday UPDATE:

Jake is still alive & fussing about being inside the pen!
Poop everywhere in said pen. He's still eating & drinking a lot.
Just gave another dose of the "API cure".
Weight same as yesterday at 1.17kg, after a fun filled night of pooping.

Good thinking, so glad you did that!

How often do I need to give the Metronidazole/Praziquantel? And was the safeguard just a single dose or will I need to give it again? I don't have any baytril yet, is that something that I will be needing to give soon? Sorry for so many questions, just trying to get it all straight in my head. Can I give the pedialyte as his water or do I need to give it separate from his water? He's just chilling by his feeder & waterer in the pen right now....

Sorry I missed this.

Give the metronidazole once a day for five days.
When you get the Baytril, give it twice a day for five days.
Give the Safeguard once, then repeat in 10 days.
Give the Pedialyte with a tube, but keep fresh water for him to drink on his own.

How is he doing tonight?

He's wanting out of that pen. Eating & drinking & pooping. I've kept him inside today, it's been in the 30~40° F all day. I think he's really bored.
