My Royal, Mitch, did his first poo since I've had him during the night, most of it seems normal, white stuff (which I've read is urates?) and general poo like looking stuff (sniggers).
But then there is a big ball of what looks like shed-skin next to him. He only shed just before I got him and I would have noticed the shedding process surely.

Does this have anything to do with his poo/has he brought stuff back up. I haven't moved it for now, as he was half sat on it, and I didn't want to pull, incase it was skin that was attached to him. Any ideas?

Cheers x

Could well be a shed, they tend to 'go' when they shed due to all the movement and stretching.

oh right, I reckon thats why he's been hiding a lot too. It's just odd as the previous owner said he found it really difficult shedding, but this seems like one big chunk.
He certainly did 'go' alright! Thanks x

yup that'll be it then, it was all rolled up too. I've only had him two weeks, and he's managed to eat, poo and shed. Crikey!
