Dexter NORMALLY poops like clockwork, between 08:00 and 09:00. There is always a poop to clean up by 09:00.
Yesterday he didn't poop by 09:00. He pooped after 16:30, after we fed him his locusts.
In between the urate and the poop was about 1.25ml of blood.
His eating habits have either become sporadic, or he's FINALLY realised that he needs more veg than bugs.
Over the past few weeks, he's been eating less bugs and more veg, but some days he doesn't touch either.
The day before yesterday, he ate a lot of butternut squash and 4 bugs. Yesterday he had butternut squash and 9 bugs, about 5 minutes after his bugs at 16:20, he pooped, there was blood between his urate and poop.
He's not leaking blood from his vent at all, was just that instance where it was in his excrement.
As it took him a belly full of bugs to poop, could it simply be that he was/is impacted?
The locusts that I purchased to feed him have now grown an "instar" bigger, Live Foods call them extra large, (the size before they reach adulthood) I bought medium/large, but with Dexter cutting down so much on his bugs, (he was on anything between 10 - 15 a day) they've grown quicker than we can feed them.
Could his bugs now be slightly too big for him to cope with?
I welcome any input, if you require a run down of his behaviour, eating habit, pooping or anything, I can give you them, as I still do his spreadsheet, recording everything I need to.
Hoping that it's just a slight impaction, which has now cleared?
BTW, I gently felt his tummy and downwards towards his vent, there were no abnormal lumps.
Edit 10:01 - Dexter just done normal poop and urate, no signs of blood or any other problem. All food seems well digested. (broke it up to inspect)
