On Farm Fecal Testing

We’ve covered livestock parasites, now we are covering how to run a fecal float test on your own farm! We love doing these episodes to help you be in charge of your animal’s health. This episode covers everything you need to get started from the equipment you will need down to the nitty gritty details of how to perform a fecal test, and what the results actually mean.

Our shout out this week goes to Wild Coast Brew! Check out their products and of course the amazing artwork on their products at https://wildcoastbrew.com
