my mali 'goes' everyday. sometimes i wonder if he did that or a small dog got into his enclosure! seriously sometimes it is small other times it is quite large. it may be there you just don't see it. what kind of substrate do you have? keep looking i'm sure it will turn up. good luck. laura

I use playsand and after every time he goes to the bathroom he buries it.Which is annoying.So I have to feel through the sand and pick out pellets.About the size of the poop mine will poop 2 small pellets and urates and hes about 7 inches.On the other hand my bearded dragon poops as much as my neighbors dog.

thanx for the replies. i feel better now. i use play sand also. i did not know that he may bury it as the times that i saw him 'go' he was on his basking rock and i thought it would always be that easy to see.

he also has the small pellet or 2 and something white.
