poop problem, need input *graphic photo*

*photo should not have yellow tint, I think that is from the CFL's in the bathroom, granules appeared white to my eyes.*

I noticed there was a large hard section in Yavie's poop right after the urates and right before the soft poop. when I opened this hard area up there are white granules inside. Yavie has not pooped in a while, but it's not uncommon for her to stop eating and pooping and hide in her cave for a few weeks at a time. She has not been housed on sand in years, nor had exposure to a sandbox. She eats a mix of superworms/large crickets depending on what I pick up. She has never been much of a pellet eater, will sometimes pick at collards and squash.

Hmmm, that is odd looking. I noticed you said that your beardie eats crickets. I have heard some people talk about the beardie having cricket eggs in their poop, just throwing that out as a suggestion. Maybe someone else will have some better ideas.

That's kinda how Freds poo looked today...eeewwww. It is the first time he did it, but it wasn't encased like that. Just loose, chunky like baby poo... :? I hope someone can help you out with this.

Yeah, I wish I would have had time to bag and tag it for the vet :-( next poop I guess.

Jiffy, she used to be allergic to cricket eggs, they'd hit her stomach and she'd vomit them back up. It was very hard separating the very eggy females from the males when she was young, but she was too small for supers then too.

the whole hard case and grainy stuff almost reminded me of an owl pellet... hard calcium like little balls like pieces of bone, but like I said she doesn't eat anything but live insects and sometimes veggies.
