[QUOTE="Srgeorge2177, post: 2015696, member: 112002"] I was holding my beardie today and noticed that inside his vent there is a little stuck poo sticking out. He is a full grown adult male and doesn’t poop very often (everything is fine that’s just how he is) I know I shouldn’t pull it out, so I tried soaking him in warm water and gently rubbing it with a qtip and couldn’t get it to come out. Should I leave it until he poops again? I also gave him some I unsweetened applesauce today to hopefully try and get him to go sooner. You can’t see the poo unless you spread the vent a little. He last pooped probably two weeks ago so that means it’s been Stuck there since. I remember his last poop was huge and he ended up walking through it and he was a mess… but I cleaned him off and thought everything was fine. Again, my question is should I leave it be and keep giving him prunes/applesauce until he goes again or do something about it now? His vent doesn’t appear swollen or irritated he does however get angry when I try and clean it off but I’m sure that’s normal. (He’s a beardie that prefers to not be touched or bothered hah) Heat is fine (hot and cool side with basking area) Uvb used: Arcadia pro 12% strip Calcium used: Arcadia calcium pro with MG multivitamin used: Arcadia multivitamin with D3 Diet: gut loaded dubia, nutrigrubs, hornworms casually Not great at greens but will give him smoothies weekly that he will typically have a little. (Offer him salads daily) [/QUOTE]
