Hi everyone! I got my first BTS Motley about a month ago. He’s doing awesome and pretty much settled into his new home. As he was walking around my lap he decided to pee on me. As he was peeing this white looking poo came out of him (it almost looked like a bird poo). I know what his poo looks like and definitely smells like so I’m just wondering what this is and if i should be concerned about it. He has no problems eating and is completely himself. Again my apologize if this is something totally normal, I’m still new to the BTS world!
Thanks for all your help!

Re: BTS peeing (First Time Owner)
That was not poo it was urates.
when they pee it's just water, and most times the white urates come out with the poo, sometimes by itself though. No worries.

Re: BTS peeing (First Time Owner)
If you've not been pooed or pee-ed on by your skink , you skink hasn't claimed you as his or her pet hooman yet , when they are relaxed with being handled / on their keepers it's all about claiming their hooman as their territory.
Different story if it's a new skink , in this case it's a fear response.

Re: BTS peeing (First Time Owner)
that sounds normal but if it starts to smell you should get him checked by a vet because there could be a parisite or infection
