    Where to send a fecal sample to be tested for worms?

    Most vets will do a simple in house "fecal float" test. Keep calling around or just drop by with a sample, shouldn't cost you more than $15 for them to take a peek.

    Is Sod OK for the coop?

    Thanks all, I think I will try the salad bar idea. I felt terrible today because one of my chickens escaped to run over and eat some grass, LOL! So I put a bowl of grated carrot, lettuce, grapes, tomatoes, strawberries, and cornbread in the coop.
