    Question Newbie & need help

    Hello everyone....

    i'm new to this forum & hoping that anyone will help me answer the question about my BP condition.
    first of all i'm sorry if my english not to good, because i'm from jakarta, indonesia.

    i have a BP that aged almost 1 year old.
    she's not poop for almost two weeks, but i'm not worried about that because i read somewhere in this forum that it's still normal...right?

    yesterday, before i fed her, she poop a little but it's runny and green.
    i read in another thread about this problems but still not sure what caused it.

    can anyone tell me why she has a green poop (the mice not eat green veggy but eat mice pellet)?
    is it caused by parasite and is it dangerous?
    if it's dangerous what medicine shoul i gave to her?

    thank you everyone who reading and willing to help me

    You might want to take it to a vet for a stool sample.

    thanks for the suggestion...

    is it ok to take it to a regular vet, not a vet specialized in reptiles?
    because i haven't found one here in jakarta.

    yes any vet that does stool samples can tell you whats in the poop or not.

    But when you bag the poop keep it moist and in the fridge. DO NOT freeze it and get it to the vet in 24-48 hours for best results.

    Also runny stools happen time to time with BPs fed a bad mouse. Also happens when they poop then pee on it right afterwards causing some pee-poop.
