Urate (Warning: picture)

Postby Hijinks » Sun Jul 08, 2007 9:18 pm

My bluey left me a little present on the kitchen table today. It looked so HUGE coming out of his little body (he is almost, but not quite, two months old). Everything's okay, right?

Rollie's passed urates the size of almonds before, and he's not the biggest skink in the world. Everything should be fine. I'd imagine urates getting stuck is extremely rare, and tell-tale signs would include the same signs as constipation, which would include straining and lifting of the tail constantly.

Anyone had a skink with urate blockage before?

A very clean and "solid" urate!

It's a good thing.
