Hi, I figured Id post this in health, cause Im guessing its not too urgent...(at least Im not too worried yet, lol) SO... my girls BOTH passed just urates in the bath tonight... Theyve alrdy both went potty twice today (which is normal) but then I had them in the bath, and not one...but both or them passed JUST URATES, no poo... neither seemed to be struggling to go or anything like that, they looked just like they normally do when they poo, Athena passed just a urate, I washed the tub out refilled, then Pers did the same thing...I rewashed it again, and refilled it... I massaged both of their tummies after and felt nothing hard, and their diet hasnt changed or anything like that... Since BOTH of them did it (within maybe 10 mins of eachother) Im not too worried...but figured Id ask what the heck is going on, cause I seriously doubt both of them would have the same problem at the same time (if it is a problem?) I tried using search alrdy, and couldnt rlly find anything similar besides suggesting impaction...and Im pretty sure they arent, I didnt feel anything, and the odds of both being impacted at the same time seem pretty small (at least you would think so...)

Persephone- 10 1/2" 65g - 3months 1 week old
Totally normal. It doesn't always happen, but sometimes if they've already pooped that day, the bath's 'making them want to poop' power still works, and they try, but there's no poop left, so they just end up passing whatever small amount of urates their body has made since last time they went.
Thanks vampy I wasnt too worried about it (since both did it) but just thought it was rlly weird. Theyd nvr done that b4! Just trying to keep me on my toes I guess :lol:
