I have a sulcata "Sherman" who is over a year old now. Three weeks ago I noticed that he was rocking from one side to the other trying to poop. When I looked at his vent I noticed what looked to me like a white rock. When I scraped the "rock" it broke up a little. I took him to the vet and they said they weren't bladder stones but rocks. To me it seems like they are solidified white discharge that is usually runny. They told me he should pass them. So now he has not been consuming food like usual and hasn't pooped for about a week. I have been soaking him in warm water daily. Is there anything that would help him to poop? Could he be constipated? Thank you in advance for your help.

Paul
