Exactly as bubblz said, when they're full of food their belly looks plump and when they lie down it sticks out to the sides but when they've processed digested and pooped they look empty and act exactly the same way. If you are worried about parasites I wouldn't be soely on the grounds of the stomach changed between meals but it never hurts to take 3 or more poops in to test (if I'm not mistaken you can save it in the freezer through the week and take all of it at once and only have to pay one fecal test fee right?) would be a nice save in money as opposed to paying 3 sample fees
