Wierd Poop (beardie still sick!)

Scott_Paynton Jun 01, 2003 01:04 AM

Well, I gave max his nightly bath (each night he is geting small chunks out)... tonight was really wierd... he started trying to get the poop out, I saw the urates come out.. but it REALLY stunk.... then that was all he could get out!... the urates where normal, but on the inside they where very brital.. and bright white... like, it started chipping away, and the parts that chipped off smelled REALLY bad... but the rest didn't.. what could be this brital stuff?

Thanks...

Hi
when the white stuf is hard you need to give him more water in some way.
most of time its a sign they need little bit more water ,like misting r bathing them r even to get him eat more greens .
you give parazap btw ?
i think you do right ?
it also have a laxative working .
byeeeee

Hey B22... ya thanks, my beardie is impacted, so I am giving him stuff to keep him hydrated (obviously not enough)... I will give him more.. I'm also using tonic-lax as a laxitive (perscribed by my vet)... I am also using a little bit of mineral oil... I'm hoping this will keep him hydrated (the pediatric).. and the other stuff will help him pass the rest through (as I said before, he is getting nightly baths).
