Performing Fecals

[cougarkeeper0]

Hello all,
Does anyone here perform fecal analysis? If so, what exactly do you look for?

Basically, you're just looking for parasite eggs. But, if you've never done a fecal, I'd suggest reading this book first: Amazon.com: Understanding Reptile Parasites: A Basic Manual for Herpetoculturists & Veterinarians (Herpetocultural Library): Roger Klingenberg: Books
There's a lot more to it than just smearing poop on a slide and looking at it.
