[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1498726, member: 27490"] Visual is about as reliable as looking at hay and guessing the protein level. Fecal egg count is the standard most vets subscribe to. I have been hammering parasites hard in my management scheme for many years. My primary concern at the current stage is keeping my sale bulls and heifers developing. I halter train them all. So for me, I hit them about once every six weeks with one of the paste oral wormers like Safe Guard. PS: fecal testing for worm eggs is simple. You sample fecal material by collecting a small amount from several bowel movements. Put it in a zip lock bag. Take it to the vet and they can look at it under a microscope. Very cheap. [/QUOTE]
