Sooooo... regardless of the species any vet tech *should* be able to look at any poop specimen and tell if parasites are present.
My local dog/cat vet told me that b/c no one there has training with reptiles that they wouldn't be able to determine parasitic presence. Just curious, as it saves me gas money to have my snake poop examined by locals than to take the 45 min. drive. Any other critical problem I'd take to the specialist.
