Parasites aren't often visible based on my limited experience with them in dragons. Did your dragon poop in the bowl? Or was it just holding water?

Might have just been something that got into the enclosure or perhaps cleaner crew from a food source or something like that. Keep an eye out for lethargic behavior or messy/excessively stinky poops for the next few weeks but I wouldn't worry about it too much.

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. 😔
