Help, Blood in beardie's stool!

[auryncharm]

I came home from work today and went to take my beardie out and she had gone to the bathroom in her enclosure. It was black with quite a bit of blood. I ran the stool to the vets office for a fecal but there was mostly blood clot and they were unable to do the fecal because of it. She's acting normally otherwise. I'm so worried about her.

Hi there....I know how scary this must be ! I wanted to mention that someone posted here a couple of times about their beardie passing a huge quantity of blood,[ and had a picture of it ] but never seemed sick otherwise. The [ possible ] conclusion in that case was that it may have been a cyst that burst. The dragon was 11 years old to boot, but still doing quite well. If you can't find anything else wrong [ and you may want to X-ray to see if anything shows up ] then it may be something similar. Of course it could be serious, but the fact that she's not acting ill is a good sign. Hang in there !

Thank you. I have made an appointment for her for tomorrow at the vet. I truly hope that it is something simple to resolve. She's had quite the colorful history (adenovirus and skin cancer).

Hello,

OH I am sorry about her passing blood! I hope it isn't anything serious. She hasn't had parasites recently has she?
Let us know how the vet visit goes & what he says. She has been doing so well lately, too.
