Microscope photo of fecal-requesting an ID

Hello all.
I got a female ambilobe for my male at the last reptile expo in White Planes. She is separate from my male and I took a fecal sample in to work to take a look under a microscope. Everything looks okay except for this. I was wondering if you guys had an idea of what it was, if anything. This is in 10x lenses and a 25x eyepiece, I believe. Sorry for the poor photo quality but I had to take a photo with my cell phone.
I've been trying to ID from resources online, but can't seem to find anything. I don't see any clear indication of organelles, so it's hard to say if it is anything at all.

Let me know what you guys thing.

Best,
Christian

Possibly a tapeworm, or roundworm egg. Could also just be a bubble. But I can't tell you for sure by that picture alone.

Absolute best bet is to get a fresh fecal to a qualified vet.

Yeah, that's definitely the plan. Just seeing what I can learn here as well. Sorry the photo wasn't great. Thanks for your help.
