My vet charges $16.
Where did you purchase your BD? Some stores have cooperative agreements with local veterinarians to provide services to their animals. One of the major chains here even has on-site basic veterinary care and several smaller specialty stores also provide a free initial screen for any animal purchased there. While you might not choose to go to a exerience/creds-unknown vet for herp care, a fecal screen is pretty routine. Can't hurt to call and ask if you did get him from a store.
The Humane Society also provides low cost veterinary care. Again, perhaps not your first choice for actual treatment, but a fecal screening is a fecal screening.
At the risk of sounding like a commercial, I would personally recommend a thorough course of Parazap. I've had very good results using it on my rescues, who come to me in varied physcial condition. Run a search for it. There is the main co. page as well as several independant distributors.
