A fecal is where you take a fresh sample of your leos poop into the vet and they run a test on the feces to tell if they have any bacteria or so forth wrong with your animal. These exams are different from vet to vet.

I paid
12.50 for a direct fecel exam
then
15.00 for a fecel wxam for parasites
then an additonal 36 dollars for the office visit.

They do two tests: a smear and a floatation, so it'll run anywhere from $20-$40.

It's a good idea to call around and ask. A lot of vets will let you drop off the fecal sample without having to bring your animal in for a visit.
