Fecal Egg Count Mobile Workshop - Ellicottville
Internal parasites are one of the most challenging and economically impactful concerns for sheep and goat owners. This workshop will explain why taking regularly testing fecal egg counts can help you with understanding your animals' parasite loads and dewormer resistance. Attendees have the opportunity to prepare and evaluate fresh fecal samples under the microscope and practice interpretations.
We will have fecal samples to evaluate and encourage you to bring some from your farm or homestead to practice with!
Registering for this event will register you for the November 5th workshop in Ellicottville. You will receive instructions for parking, the building location, and the room number via email 2 days prior to the event.
For any questions, please reach out to Amy Barkley, Livestock Specialist, at 716-640-0844 or amb544@cornell.edu.
This work is supported by the Northeast Extension Risk Management project award no. 2024-70027-42540, from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture.
