Usually the perefer feces that is moist, just because it is easier to work with and any protozone might still be alive. When I had to take a leo in he told me to stick it in a tupperware container in the refridge if I had to hold onto it overnight, since this keeps it moist.

Unfortunately, I dont think that'll do. Im pretty sure they need a fresh fecal sample to do tests on. Hope your leo gets better though,
