🐐 Why Your Goat's Fecal Results May Be Lying to You 📱

A negative fecal doesn’t always mean your goat is worm-free! In this video, I'm explaining all the reasons a fecal egg count might show fewer worms than your goat actually has. You’ll learn how collection mistakes, timing, and even the goat’s biology can lead to misleading results — and how to make sure your fecal exams tell the real story about your herd’s parasite load. If you want to learn how to collect samples correctly, interpret results, and use FAMACHA scoring and the 5-point check to make treatment decisions, check out my Parasites in Goats course, which is part of our Goats 365 membership.
