tummy lump

[xerioc]

Last night I had my beardie out n he was running around then stopped to use the bathroom, he did started it like usual lifting his tail n wiggling his butt a lil bit but this time he lifted both back feet off the ground n his belly was all poofed up n liquid came out n he continued for a few mins w no other success, I picked him up n rubbed his belly n I felt a hard lump on the right side closer to his tail, any idea what the problem is and a solution to it? I have him on calcium sand and he has not had a problem w it before but I recently switched him to large crickets could this be the problem? He acts mostly normal except he's drinking more water and when I take him out he's active then he just stops n lays down in a safe spot, he cam run and stand up okay. I'm not sure if the lump was there before or not it feels large for his size of body

It is quite possible he's impacted. He probably ingested some calci sand and it got stuck in his digestive tract. I would give him a warm bath and some sugar free baby prune sauce to help him get t out of his system, if he's still having this problem tomorrow or so you should get him to the vet and remove the calci sand from his tank. Hope he gets better!
