My year old beardie marty has always eaten well and pooped regularly. About 13 days ago, they started to become quite irregular. They came only every 3 or 4 days and smelled REALLY horrible. I know that they aren't usually the best smell, but I mean these ones wreak. I have already bathed him twice this weekend and drenched his veggies in water to see if he was dyhdrated and it didn't help. He never drinks still water. He eats his veggies which have quite a bit of water on them though. I wash them and spray them before I out his calcium on them so I don't think dehydration is the issue here. When I give him baths he poops but when I recently looked at his vent after he pooped once, I realized that there was dried hard poo stuck to it and it looked like he worked hard to get it out. Should I ask a vet? Is this parasites?
Please help! thank you!!

If it continues to smell unusually bad, it's probably best to bring a sample to the vet to have it checked out. If something is wrong it's probably best to get on it as quickly as possible. If it returns normal, then you get peace of mind.

I agree he needs a fecal done. Bowel movements that are stinky enough to clear a room usually means parasites.

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