: Most animals tend not to be too happy after worming. Panacur is generally pretty safe, her soaking is a natural behavior, plus she may be trying to neutralize the poisons in panancur. Give her a few more days to feel better, then worry. I have panacured several lizard species and noted this behavior soon after worming. If possible feed her some feces from a healthy, wormed, Brown Tort.

Hi,
Im sorry that your tort isnt feeling well. Just wanted to chime in to say that Justins post pretty much echos my thoughts but I have one tiny bit to add:
I always use a lactose free acidophilus when giving antibiotics or wormers to try to balance any damage of the intestinal flora.
Take care,
tcc :)
