I posted on here a while ago about my beardie not eating for a few weeks. Her appetite still hasn’t improved - still hasn’t eaten any veg and literally like 5 calci worms a week or two ago. She pooped about two and a half weeks ago and I posted about it on here because it had a weird, jelly-like consistency, and I was told not to worry about it if it was just a one off.
However, she pooped again today (usual pooping habits - running around the tank, getting really excited, pooped in her usual spot), but it’s the same mucousy consistency as before. I’m concerned that she has parasites and that could be the issue with her eating too. She’s fine in herself, I’ve attached some photos for you to see. Her temps. are about 90 for her tank overall, with a cool side of 84 and a basking spot temp of 98-100. Her night time temps don’t go below 77, and she had a new UVB a few weeks ago because her old one was due to be changed.
Her poop:
Beans:
Edit: she normally eats Morio worms because she’s *very* picky with her food. When she stopped eating, the vet told me to buy her some calci worms because they’re very healthy for her, and she did eat about 5 of them while she refused the Morios, but she hasn’t eaten any since. Also, when she pooped two weeks ago, the day before she was struggling to go, and it turned out she had a hair stuck in her vent that she’s accidentally swallowed. She passed the hair and then she pooped successfully, but it was all mucousy like I said.
