undigested food in poop

Zeus Feb 19, 2004 07:00 PM

the last couple of days i have noticed that there has been chunks of undigested food in bellas poop. things like peas and parts of green beans and fruit. i checked the basking temps and it is about 110. what do you guys think? should i take in a poop sample to get tested. i just did this a couple of months ago. thanks

Has there been any antibiotic treatment recently? Temps are good. I don't know if a fecal is necessary if the one 2 months ago was negative. I'd try to add some natural bacteria to the gut by way of yoghurt (with live culture) or some probiotics like Nutri-bac. I've been using a product called Salad Topper from Cricketfood.com that has 30 some nutrients in it plus immune boosters and probiotics.
