As the title says, Nemesis has been, for a few weeks now, having mucus covering her poo, like a pouch. She's had (and still has sometimes) GI tract issues, but I'm not sure if that would be related. Does anyone know what would cause this? I've been meaning to take a fecal in for her 6 month check up but she only poos in the bath! :banghead:
Suggestions?

My dragon recently went through the same thing when he started eating his salad, I was my usual worrywart self and brought a fecal to my vet the next day. Everything came back clear on the fecal. Yay! But what caused the mucous we are still not sure. It went away after about a week; I was also giving acidophiliz+ every other day for that entire week *just in case* :wink:

Well, she eats veggies, that is for sure, but this has been happening for about 5-6 weeks now :study:

I wonder if she picked up an infection or something from doing 3(?) clutches all within close proximity to each other?

I am unsure of what this could be from. I know your camera is out of service but, perhaps there is another way of getting a picture? Neighbor? Family/relative? Phone? etc..?

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
