Pooping with a little blood???

My Chubbs is in semi-brumation and she pooped normally a few days ago (I wasn't home but my bro was and cleaned it). Today I gave her a nice hot bath (90-95 no higher) and she ended up pooping a tiny bit and she had a hint of red blood while pooping.

I was thinking a prolapse but soon after she pooped I checked and she is clean with no prolapse. Should I be worried? Is it because she was straining to poop? She eats once a week and will brumate normally unless I wake her for food and a bath (she drinks that way). With spring coming both of my beardies are rumbling and moving more in their hides so I know they will be out of brumation soon

Did Chubbs eat any type of red or purple food like berries ?
Nope she is just now starting to come out to bask and be active everyday so I'm hoping it was a fluke.

I talked to my vet and he said to keep a eye on it since she may of just strained since she hasn't been eating much. But she is now wanting to eat every day so I'm hoping she will poop and it won't happen this time.

If it does happen again he said to bring her in immediately

Surgery, Blood transfusion, Internal bleeding (potentially) not confirmed, Sudden onset anemia, potential aneurism etc. Echo stayed in the hospital overnight and the dr did not have good news when she called to update me today. I’m not 100% sure that I made the right decision by coming to pick her up (against what the dr recommended) but she was in far worse condition since having dropped her off. Help! 2nd opinion!?
The basking side of my tank isn't getting up to the suggested 100degrees. Does that mean I need to get a new basking light?
does her poop look healthy?
In your perspective does my baby bearded dragon look healthy or unhealthy? Does she look bloated? she is active and eats very well also she is in her basking spot all day
