Constipation

[Tasnene]

Hello everyone I hope everyone is fine during this pandemic.
Yeti has been constipated I did the prune juice with olive oil about four days apart it seems she still constipated. She’ll have days where she would eat a lot and then she would not. She is very active and she has no lumps and I don’t feel anything hard. She’s not really getting her 12 hour cycle because the sun comes up before her light so I fix that. I can’t really tell what is going on. She doesn’t look sick. I think maybe she’s bored of her food so I’m going to see if I can switch it up a bit. But it’s challenging due to the pandemic. Her lights are all right.

If everything is good she will go when she needs to--- they can go for weeks sometimes months of not pooping-- as long as basking temps are correct and a good UVB NO coils and placement is correct you should be good

Really?! Omg thank you I was stressing out . She used to poop every day when she was little then as she got older she pooped every other day and then I haven’t seen her poop. I truly appreciate you , I was sooo worried

You dont have her on any loose substrate like sand etc do you? That could cause impaction --- and you havent seen her straining to go correct??

No to both but she only went when I gave her the prune mix with olive . She has no lumps and I definitely don’t have no loose substrate. Oh and she does not walk weird from all the signs they told me to look at online.

Ok well just be patient she will go -- have you tried warm baths and messaging her tummy?

Yeah she only went when I gave her the mix each time . I read it’s not good to do that often though
