Blood in poop

My older (9y) male bearded dragon just pooped with a large amount of viscous blood and I'm not sure what to do. I just got back from being gone for a week so someone else was taking care of him, but nothing he ate should cause any poop color like this. I'm worried sick and don't know when I could take him in. He doesn't have anything around his cloaca that would make me think it's a prolapse and there are no behavioral changes. He did have a black beard a bit earlier but that isn't too abnormal for him considering the time/his temperament. I'm very very worried and any advice at all would be helpful, he's so important to me and I want to do anything I can to help him.

I wish it was but the liquid is definitely blood based on how it cloted up and separated. He also didn’t eat any blueberries while I was gone.

Hello,

That is concerning. Do you know what foods he took in while you were gone?
It is hard to tell but his eyes look like they are a bit puffy, is that correct? If they are it's possible
he is having renal issues. Can you get him to the vets on Monday?

Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
cookie event at my library today, quite fun! Made some bracelets for my comrades too, to give them at church in the morning. Got a busy day tomorrow even though I’m off work… i go back on tuesday so atleast I’ll have 2 days off to rewind….then back to hell lol
