poop

My dragon is leaving really wet droppings... why and is this ok?

just varies on the diet. get used to smelly, nasty waste :P

they only reason i thought to ask was because it used to be a bit different

yeah, mine changes.. if one week they get more roaches then the other, more greens, etc etc.. the colour and consistency changes.

is everything else looking good? eating well? keeping weight on? etc. if so I wouldn't worry too much.

well i have had him for about 4 weeks now... and he is about 9 - 9.5 inchs long

Hello,


Are you feeding silkworms or hornworms? If so, they give alot of fluids in their stools. If he is eating alot of greens or veggies, that will contribute also.
As long as it isn't diarrhea, & not runny or smelly, (overly) then he is just most likely well hydrated & it is nothing to worry about.

well i gave him carrots a couple times in a row... ummm... and the actually fecal matter is pretty solid... but there is like a clear film over it... and there is some liquid

Hello,

Well, the carrots are fine. They do contain a bit of sugar which could result in a more watery stool. If the stool itself is not bad, then it really is nothing to worry about if you don't mind a little extra cleaning. An extra amount of hydration is never a bad thing, either.

awesome... thank you very much

Hello!

No problem. Let me know if you need anything else.
