Unformed Poop

Status
Not open for further replies.
My 6 month old bearded dragon Gus has had unformed poop for about 2 weeks now. He poops every couple of days which, from my understanding, is pretty standard. His appetite, basking behaviors, and sleep schedule is completely normal. When I take him out for enrichment and bonding time, he explores normally, doesn't hide or run away, and seems energetic and normal.

I'm not too concerned (unless I should be) because I know he doesn't show any other symptoms of bad health, but I'm wondering if this is something I should get looked at anyways. I'm also curious if there are any home remedies or other things I can try to get his poop back to normal.

If they eat a lot of greens that can happen as well. If you're worried you can have a fecal test done but it's not that uncommon for a dragon that eats a lot of greens.

What is he eating? When Figment eats a lot of dubias, his poo would be more of a "mound" than a "log" and I was told this was perfectly fine.

Silkworms too, apparently, if you either feed a bunch or feed jumbos. I notice Ardie always has a (very wet) mound instead of a neat log if I give him lots of silkworms (or 2-3 super huge ones). :lol:

I guess basically, what are you feeding him?

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. 😔
