Hello,

My male is about 6 months old and lately has had very runny fecals. Literal puddles of semi clear liquid. I've haven't seen anything this bad since I've got him.(been runny prev. just not this bad) Now he doesn't seem to have much of an appetite. Any advice is a great help to me, and thanks in advance.

Andy

Sounds like he has a parasite infection. Take a fecal to your vet for testing.

Is there just alot of liquid and a brownish lump in his poo or all brown and runny? Excess clear fluid with formed solid lumps (one large brownish one and a smaller white chalk like substance) that doesn't smell 'run out of the room' bad, would be normal poo of a well hydrated dragon. The fact he slowed down eating could mean parastes. Getting a vet to do a fecal test wouldn't hurt.

Hi i agree with LdyPayne
you need to find a good docter who can test poop of youre dragon.
try to bring it fresh as posibal in a ziplocked bag .
i use a a product who kill parasites in a prefentif way.
it mainly kills worms ,but that many times the case .
parazap.com .
it also can be you have a parasite type coccidiose ,flagelates,
then you need other medicines.
at herpvetconection.com you can find a veterian.
byeeeee
