Change in poo

[Kimmer76]

Since I changed my bearded dragon from meal worms to horn worms, his poo seems a lot more wet and less well formed. I went to clean it up this morning and it's like it was sitting in a puddle of water. Is this normal or could there be something wrong? He weighs 36g and seems to be gaining weight rapidly. He puts on 1-2g per day. He's up from 23g since the last time I posted.

That is normal, hornworms are super juicy and will cause runny poop

could superworms do this as well?

He's too young and small to get superworms or mealworms .

You could try silkworms , more nutritious than hormworms , but expect wet poos with them too.

Speaking of poo and hornworms... I fed my three year old beardy boy a hornworm for the first time about two weeks ago. He hasn't pooped since then and I've bathed him in warm water multiple times, massaged his belly and fed him cooked pumpkin with a little bit of olive oil. Still nothing.

Our weather has also been fluctuating where I'm located so he's sort of gone back into a brumation type mode and sleeps after each time I feed him. He still has a great appetite and other than sleeping half the time he's active as usual (which really isn't much). What should I do??
