curly urate?

[thelouise]

I was checking on my beardies yesterday and one of my girls had pooped, all was normal except the urate was curly - like a corkscrew or a seashell. I have never seen this before, and couldn’t find anything when searching. All my dragons are perfectly healthy (as far as I’m aware, with a recent vet visit too), only problem is not 100% who the poo belonged too as my girls are co-housed. Does anyone have any ideas? I’m a bit stumped.

That's odd. I've never seen urate form like that before. Has this only happened once? It looks healthy and normal aside from the curly shape.

It has never happened before to any dragons I’ve ever had, it’s really strange.

Did this ever occur again? Does she have regular bowel movemebts? I'm dealing with the same thing from my baby.

It hasn’t happened again exactly like that, and I never got an answer for what caused it, she did continue to have abnormal urate for a while but nothing that severe.
