Hey guys, my beardie Jenny has been having some unhealthy looking stool lately. It started as foul smelling loose stool about a week ago-not completely liquid, but also not healthy and solid. I went away on spring break two weeks ago and left Jenny with a petsitter so I figured the loose stool was just residual stress from being in a new environment for a week without me. However, over a week later and her stool is still not solid...plus i just spotted a very small amount of blood in todays stool.
I feel her a salad every morning (lately it's been kale and either bell peppers or blueberries) topped with mealworms. Yes, I know mealworms are a bad staple live feeder but I'm strapped for cash right now and they are much cheaper than any other feeder I could find. This is what I've been feeding him for about the past month as before that I was feeding him twice a day but as he's approaching one year old and getting kind of chubby I figured it was time to switch to feeding once a day. It might be worth mentioning his behavior and everything else about him is completely normal. He is alert and active, shedding just fine, and has his usual voracious appetite. So basically I really don't know why his stool looks the way it does but seeing that little bit of blood today has got me really worried...any suggestions?
