Hi, new to the forum, but ill just get right to business. I have a 10 months beardie, and today while i was letting him for soak a bit in the bath since he is in shed I noticed tiny little rice like grains in his stool. They looked very similar to cricket excrement (might of answered my own question) but considering how much was in his stool I thought it was a little alarming. otherwise his appetite is fine, his weight is normal, and the rest of feces looked fine. Should I be bringing a fecal over to my local herp vet?

It's probably a good idea. It's always a good idea to get them a vet check, with fecal, once a year. Usually it's done right before the brumation season (fall).

You should get a fecal done just to be safe, but if you use large crickets as your staple they might be cricket eggs, especially if your beardie is acting normal. I remember seeing it somewhere in the Beardie ER forum sometime recently. I am new like you and cannot find the link, if I can I will edit.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔

I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
