Kit contents:

25 gloves, 25 small Whirl-Pak® bags, lubricant, 2 ice packs, 1 liner bag, 1 medium insulated cooler, and paperwork that includes submission form, labels, and UPS airbill addressed to LSU in Baton Rouge, LA.

Collection Instructions

1. Collect the post-deworming fecal samples Sunday-Wednesday, 10-14 days after deworming. Select the same goats that were sampled previously, which are listed on the pre-deworming form. From each goat, collect 5-6 fecal pellets. Use clean gloves for each goat. Collect samples from the rectum when possible. Be sure to use lubricant and be careful not to damage the rectum. Rectal retrieval might not be possible on some goats (e.g. preweaned kids), and fresh off the ground samples are acceptable. On each label, write the goat’s name or ID, and attach the label to the sample bag.

2. Samples must be fresh (not petrified). Do not exclude diarrhea samples. Goats sampled should match the goats on the pre-deworming form.

3. Cool samples down as soon as possible (in a refrigerator or cooler).

RECTAL RETRIEVAL To avoid contamination from common organisms on the ground, rectal retrieval is best. Rectal retrieval might not be possible on some goats (e.g. preweaned kids), and fresh off the ground samples are acceptable.
	1. Apply lubricating jelly to the glove before entering the rectum. Lightly stroking the rectum might encourage defecation.		2. Retrieve a minimum of 5-6 pellets per animal.
3. Place pellets in a Whirl-Pak® bag. On each label, write the goat’s name or ID and attach it on to the bag. 4. Continue collecting samples from other goats using a clean glove for each.

The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to average 2.0 hours per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.
