HELP ME.

[MarianaL87]

I was just giving my beardie a bath and he pooped (as usual) and his pooped look very very strange...Ive NEVER seen his droppings look that way. They came out GRAY.

Please tell me i dont have anything to worry about?

The poop was COATED with gray, on the inside it was normal brown.

Was it almost like a slimy covering over the poop?

yes.

Is it serious?...

I have seen that with mine, and havent had any problems with them. I dont think it is anything.
Hopefully if someone has seen something different, hopefully they will chime it.

Oh god bless you. Its just that i let the "specimen" go down the drain and i was thinking "now how am i going to get it to the vet for an exam!?"
At first i thought it could maybe be me over using the vitamin powder?


I was just going to have to wait until another bowel movement to take him to the vet.

I hope i see some more responses.

Thank you very much!!

Just in case you are.. you only need to dust one feeding a day. I dust Blaze's dinner with calcium 5x weekly, and vitamins 2x weekly, but I have a young'un. Older dragons don't need as much.

Really? I thought it was anything you fed your beardie.
Good to know, thank you very much!!

I have seen the grey film like coating with my beardy's every now and then too. Never had any problems with it, mine are all healthy as can be.

My beardie, Pookie, also would have this strange whitish/grayish film covering his poop. I, too, had wondered if this was a health issue, but was told that that's perfectly normal.
