[QUOTE="Subion, post: 2027881, member: 114709"] She only goes potty in water but it seems to be runny and not formed up. If I try to get a sample it falls apart as soon as touched. I do have a quick question though about parasites. Can you see them in stool? When she went potty today it broke apart and there were little probably rice size things floating in the water. I didn’t see any movement or anything but not sure what she could have ate that would look like that. There were quite a few from what I could tell. But I’m not sure what I’m looking for to see if it is. Anyways I did call the vet today and talked to them. They said it could be water settling down in her foot. Another thing was it may be a sign calcium is starting to run low. Even though it looked good on last weeks test it may be dropping some and the lab they use don’t really specialize in reptiles as much as what the exotic vets may use so even though he trusts the results they could be off. He also said since it seems to swell when she eats more then it could be her gaulbladder but they don’t see enough reptiles here to feel comfortable doing an ultrasound that they may overlook something small because they don’t see that many reptiles. He suggested I try to get back to see the vet in Ohio mind next month who being a specialist would probably have better understanding of the ultrasound and may use a more accurate lab for reptiles. In the meantime he wants to try a little calcium to see if it helps her any. If she doesn’t show improvement or gets worse to bring her in to check her. [USER=8309]@Drache613[/USER] did you look at the labs? Just wondering how they seem to you. I don’t know what I’m looking at to even try to understand them. [/QUOTE]
