Yep not uncommon actually a good majority of dragons have some in their system it's when they become stressed that their numbers can get out of control then end up causing issues.. Make sure when you use the Pancur to also give him probiotics to help restore the natural gut flora as meds clear their GI system of all good and bad bacteria...

Dolly had pinworms when I got her. Panacur is very hard on their system, so I second the probiotic recommendation. I like the stuff from bearded dragon.co there's a few different kinds they sell but they are all good. Over the counter you can use Children's Culturelle. With no added flavors or sweeteners in it.
