I have a 7 or so month old beardie and just two weeks ago I got him that cursed vita-sand (calcium sand) that I narrowly avoided getting him an impaction with. I was able to take him to the vet and they appoved him to come back home after getting him to poop and giving him metronidazole (for giardia). It took him an entire week to poop after that vet visit (from Friday to the next Friday). As I’m typing his he has finally pooped after about 2 days but I’m still left with one question. Could there still be sand left in his intestine or do you think if he got it cleared out soon enough he will be able to pass it over time? I’ve been giving him summer (yellow) squash and occasional soaks in hopes of getting things moving as well any advice appreciated. Btw his poops are massive and well formed but it concerns me that he waits until he’s completely full.
If for some reason you need to know:
Temps: 90-101
Diet: crickets, mealworms, veggies
Lighting: heating globe is not the best but gets the temps up and a reptisun 5.0 which I’m going to replace when winter rolls around. I also take him outside to make up for slightly poor lighting.
