Ok I've had Angie since mid April - figure she was around 3 months when I got her making her almost a year old. We went thru a phase back in August where she didn't want to eat so she was syringe fed. She got out of that phase and went back to normal, well close to normal. Then a few days ago she stopped eating again. Knowing everything is pretty much fine with her, she's alert, gets baths and has been pottying for the most part, normally. There was a day or two where she didn't go potty but made up for that in her bath!
Now to my subject title. Yesterday afternoon when I went to give her her salad and maybe try coaxing her to eat, I noticed something on her basking area. At first I thought it was urate as it was white (like urate). But it wasn't shaped like that - it actually had this bullbous shape to it. Like a skinny football shape. I took it out with a wipe but didn't really look at it too closely and tossed it. It was white on one side of it and a light orange-ish color on the side. There was some liquid there as well (not a lot). Could she have passed an egg? Not sure if she's old enough (thus the mini-history first). I tried to palpitate her but really didn't feel much out of the norm.
Now remember, I think it was last week, she looked "bloated" like - like she was PUFFED up with air. She went back to normal looking a day or two after that and then had that massive poop in the tub.
She's fine, VERY alert, wanting OUT of her cage most times but no digging.
