Sand Test

Below are the results of Bullwinkle's latest sand test


I figure it's between 1/8 and 1/4 cup of sand.

But the blockage (minute as it was) has passed. He is dropping HUGE piles of poop.

To do a sand test, you need a bucket, preferable white. You put the poop in the bucket, trying not to get any that is touching the ground. (I managed to get 75% of the pile) Then you run water from a hose into the bucket until the water runs clear. You want the water on low pressure so you wash off the solids, but don't wash the sand out.
