After feeding one of my girls about 20 PW's I put her back in her viv and she pooed almost immediately. In her poo there was a live PW. Has this this happended to anyone before? The PW's are wet because I put them in water to get the substrate off and also to make sure she gets some water. Should I be concerned? She has been eating them for about a month now and this is the first time this has happended.

WOW! Thats crazy. Are you sure she didnt just poop on a worm? Because the acid in their stomachs is very corosive.

No, this has happened to other posters before.. anyone remember what they did to keep this from happening?

No, I am sure she did not poo on a worm because I feed her outside her viv. I am just hoping that it happended because she went almost immediately after eating. I am going to feed her one at a time next time to make sure she is chewing. She does eat them pretty fast.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
