I recently took a job as a vet tech at the emergency clinic; one of the perks is that I can run fecals on my goats. :biggrin I have been spot-checking everyone, and they look pretty good. I use a dime-sized sample, and on my worst slide I found 5 eggs that I thought were hookworms.
One slide had one coccidia oocyst, and another had one hookworm egg.
Do I worm? As a small animal vet tech, I am used to calling a sample ~positive~ with only a single egg noted, and then worming the pet.
My goats haven't been wormed since the spring.
