I hope you find the answers that you need
I agree - Maggie really had no symptoms for the Giardia except for the mucousy loose stool. Even that wasn't much - just a couple times. It never hurts to have the stool tested with the vet It could just be stress or because it's both of them, maybe something they ate. BTW, Giardia is really hard to detect and it could take several samples to show up in a test.

Good luck and good job checking out the poop - It sounds gross but I think it's so important to check it out to make sure the babies are healthy!!
