Fecal Egg Count (FEC) Testing is a laboratory screening test used to detect and measure the number of internal parasite eggs present in poultry droppings. Routine FEC testing provides an evidence based approach to parasite management, helping producers determine when treatment is necessary rather than worming on a fixed schedule. Regular monitoring can identify parasite burdens before they begin affecting flock health and production. Using fecal egg counts to guide treatment decisions supports effective worm control, helps reduce unnecessary drench use, and can slow the development of anthelmintic resistance.
