    Re: Weird poo with pics help

    It's called urates...they urinate both solid and liquid matter (totally different from poo...which looks exactly like you'd expect poo to look). Looks normal to me. As for the one you describe as a "pebble"...I don't know. Might be more urates...or it might be something it ingested before it came into your ownership and just passed through. I wouldn't worry about it.

    Yeah Urates are weird, they are semi solid, so when you crush them, it's a powdery type substance that packs together really tight. But all that looks like what i have to clean up every few days, all normal! Don't worry about that, just be glad hes passing everything through and i hope he gets over the RI quick!

    Me too he had his last shot three days ago and today I was to soak him but he still is wheezing a little, but he seems like he is stronger then he is when I got him and he still hasn't been fed yet I found him lounging on top of his box hide for the first time I hope he stops soon

    Poo.

    Hey, I just wanted the legitimate excuse to say "It's poo" publicly. Looks like what I clean up every week too. Sometimes there's a lot of fecal matter in the urates, and sometimes you just get the urates, which is the fluid and hard whitish lumps. The other greenish lump could be colored urates or a piece of fecal matter. Looks like fairly normal poo though. Always good to see a keeper concerned enough to examine their pet's poo though.

    And I got to say "poo" four times... five if you count this time.
