Long ago, I worked for a small animal vet and prepared floats. This is EXACTLY how we did it. 👍🏻

Very good explanation. Once you have the microscope, fecal flotation are really easy, every one should do it.

Maybe I should not give a rating bc I haven’t tried this for real. I know you are right about not treating if there are no real health problems to address.

The test description looks very good. If I ever suspect worm problems I certainly buy a microscope and follow these directions.

Thank you for this article. It is practical for those of us that wish to do our own testing...and have to because we do not have access to an avian vet. Well-written.

Thanks! I actually didn't mean to publish it yet (technologically challenged...LOL!), so have added some reference pics. I test all the animals on my farm (and test for a few other folks locally), so if you give it a go and have questions, feel free to ask!
