Friday when I collected his stool to bring to the vet I saw 3 white what ever, near the surface of the stool, I didn't see the entire thing just part of it, the 3 were not all in one spot, 2 were on one side of stool the other was on the other side of stool, it looked like rice, but, I didn't see the front or the end I am thinking I saw the middle of what ever. It appeared to be flatter and a bit wider and whiter then rice. This was the sample I took to the vet that they did the fecal float on. Cody was not feed rice so I knew it wasn't that. Yesterday what I saw when I picked up his poop was many, many white dots, the size of the tip of a sewing needle, the entire poop had this. The poo I picked up this morning I saw nothing at the surface. I don't mush up his poo to look to see if there is anything in it. I know parasites can only be seen under microscope and not with the naked eye, this is what is causing me great concern.
