Ive had this particular juvi for about 3 weeks. The last two days his poop has been soft with a cloudy white liquid on it. He ate a huge amount of crickets the day before. Am i just being paranoid or is there something wrong with him. He seems to have no markings or anything physically wrong. No symptoms of impaction. I gave him a warm soak which he seemed to enjoy. His tail seems a slight bit smaller but it could just be me. Anyone familiar with this poop issue or am i just being paranoid?

please don't post duplicate threads.

Sounds like a normal stool + urate to me. If you're really worried, post up a photo for us to look at, but I'm pretty sure its absolutely normal.

My fault i found the other section of the forum after i posted the original. I already disposed of the waste. Thank you for reassuring me, it was just odd seeing soft waste vs. his usual hard droppings

no worries.

When you say soft, do you mean runny?

[tstratton]

The stool itself was soft. But the liquid was obviously runny.

[Graham_s]

ok. I'd only worry if the stool itself is almost liquid, as that is usually an indicator that something is wrong, but as I say, it sounds like the poo is completely normal. They usually come out soft, and harden after a while.

thanks so much for your knowledge, greatly appreciated. Ill let you know if everything carries on as normal

He still wasn't eating crix, so i made the trip to get some meal worms for variety. Of course, hes eating them and pooping normal now!
