Possible parasites?

If my bd has parasites, what would her poop look like? For the last 2 BM's she has had I noticed a couple things....

Vinny is about 8months old and almost 17inches from nose to tip of the tail. Her viv temps are 103-107 for her basking spot, cool side 75 and the warm side is 90-95. She has paper towel for a substrate and she poops daily in her bath. She is fed a mix of greens (all either staple or occosional foods off of the beautiful dragons site) fruit (apples, strawberries, grapes, etc) and crickets.
A couple days ago after she did her buisness in the tub, she kicked her stool and it fell apart. Immediately I noticed something was different with it. It's hard to describe what I saw so bare with me (I will get pictures asap) I would describe it as bits of the hard 'shell' that super worms have, and/or the shell of superworms heads (i guess). There was also what looked like little orange balls in her poop. You know the little bits in pickle juice? That's what I thought of when I was looking at it....

She does not get super worms anymore (she used to though, hasn't had them for maybe a month). I also gave her pheonix worms for the first time last week. She has not had a fecal done yet but I am going to get one to the vet (sooner then later!)

What do you think it could be? I'm going to try and get her to the vet tomorrow, but if I can't then it won't be until Monday - does this sound like parasites :?: :?:

I just wanted to add that her behaviour and eating is normal - the odd things in her stool is the only change.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
