Seed-looking thing in poop, should I worry?

Postby ToastTheSkink » Wed Sep 02, 2020 6:53 am

Hello! A month ago I got a northern BTS and everything has been fine until now. I don’t know if this is a problem really, but I am still worried. It appears my bluey had some droppings come out and 1, the poop was very liquid-y, which has been happening lately, And 2, it appears a blueberry seed was not digested completely.

I feed blueberries to them fairly often and have never had this problem, the skink eats them as treats in his food daily, since I like to incorporate a few treats in his food, which are most often a slice or two of mango and a small blueberry and/or a Tempations cat treat. This problem has never happened so I am just a bit panicky and wondering if this is normal.

I wouldn't worry unless this becomes routine. Also a blueberry or two is fine but be careful not to get your skink reliant on fruits with every feeding.
