    Weird "hairy" poop

    Ok, unfortunatly (or fortunately ) I dont have any pictures, because when I noticed this, I was already half way done cleaning it.

    My breeder size albino female had kind of weird looking poop today. On one part of the enclosure, there was a big pile of "normal" poop that I cleaned, and then I noticed 2 pieces on the opposite side, that were both grayish and composed out of hair.
    From time to time I find poop that has more hair in it then average and I dont worry about it, but since this time it was totally separated it got me kinda worried.
    I was wondering if it could be a regurgitation, but somehow I doubt it, since the last time she was fed was last friday.
    I know its hard to give an opinion without a picture, but what do you guys think? This friday is also feeding day, so I am wondering if I should skip feeding her this time.

    Nah shouldn't be an issue. My Champagne gave me a pile of poop, and then about an hour later gave me a hair looking pellet of poop. Just got digested slower and separated in the intestines.

    Yeah, same as above. I see those a lot. I've found completely white "poops" made of nothing but hair.
