Yellow mass in feces?

[Agonistes]

I was originally concerned that Vlad had parasites, but I think it was just my over-caring self being paranoid. This morning I noticed Vlad had an unusual yellow mass (to the left in the picture) that was a tad hard and spongy. His urates have also had a marshmellow texture and consistency, sometimes the urates is just a watery paste. This originally led me to believe he had parasites, but he has been eating like his usual fatty-self and is not lethargic at all. I was wondering opinions or if anyone knew why his feces is like this.

It's possible that he just may have eaten something he shouldn't have and it has come out the other side. My beardie once ate a piece of cricket gel and had a similar yellow mass in his poo.

Hello,

That could be something that he has eaten.
What type of supplementation are you giving him, & how often do you use it for him?
The urates, are they chalky or hard or soft more of the times?

I mix the rep-cal formulas together into a 1:4 ratio. 1 part nutrition powder and 4 parts calcium. For the first months I had him it was hard and nearly dry, I do spray him and give him baths rather frequently so he is very well hydrated. He's not lethargic at all, during his bath the other day he was happily moving around the tub being his general curious self.

Hello,

Ok, that is probably fine with the supplementation. Are his urates usually soft? Is this the first time this has happened with the yellowish mass in the urates?
How much protein does he get & does he eat his greens pretty regularly?

This is the first yellow mass I've seen, and I'm the only one that cares for him. He does not regularly eat greens because I can't seem to keep greens good for more than a few days in my fridge. As far as protein goes I feed him dubia roaches and crickets.

I have found that if you keep your greens in a salad keeper it seems to keep them good for about a week or so. My wife found ours for about $20. It has a green colored strainer to keep the moisture away from the greens. Just a thought.
