Do leos ever eat their shed and then either regurgitate or pass it in one big roll? Their was a big white roll of something (way bigger than poop) left behind and I know that one of the girls just shed. Is it OK that they passed it without digesting it??

Hmmmm...that doesn't sound good. It sounds like he regurgitated it. This could be caused by alot of things like eating it to fast or maybe he was already full or he may be stressed a little. What are your temps?
