    A LOT of urine

    Is it unusual for a BP to pee a lot? I came home today and Jackson's tank was foggy. Now, it's been a miserably rainy day, but I've never seen it fogged up, so I was pretty freaked. Upon closer inspection, I found a HUGE pee puddle right on top of his UTH. I've never seen him pee so much. Could this be indicative of something that I should watch for, or am I overreacting (as usual)?
    He seems to be just fine, he's doing his normal thing, tongue flickering, curious as ever, doesn't seem to be sick or bothered at all...

    I would think that just means he's well hydrated.

    That's a relief... I do see him drinking a lot.

    I can't believe it fogged up his tank! It looked like my bathroom after a hot shower... but it was directly over his heater. I gave his tank a good cleaning after that. Gross- pee fog.

    My pastel butter does this all the time. When he pees his shoebox goes so opaque that the only reason I can tell he's in there is because he's flailing around and leaving streaks on the walls, waiting for me to clean up after him.
