Hey damien was climbin around his viv when I walked up to check he was all ok and he spotted be and kinda fell as like I made him jump!! Then when I went back there looked to be what only can be described as a thin brown poop but didn't smell at all!! And it was hard to touch! Baring in mind he shed and pooped 2weeks ago I can only imagine it was a regurge 6days after consuming the mouse! This has never happened before so what o askin is, has anyone else had this like a regurge after a fall or when u may have made them jump as it were??? Many thanks

I doubt it was a regurge if it was 6 days after he had eaten. if it was like a small poo then it prob was, even though he had poof earlier they can still poo when they need to go, so could just have been a small bit

They can often take a dump in between sheds. If it was clearly faecal matter (go on, examine it closely, enjoy!!) it's not a regurge.

I've had a couple of corns leaving me impacted fur (obviously mixed up with faecal matter (oh why won't the swear filter let me say s***? lol!) And once I even found a tail ... A nice healthy dump, but wrapped up with a tail ....

Who'd be a rodent eh?

Regurge smells like nothing you've ever smelt before, its putrid and will burn your nostrils and turn your stomach for a few hours, it really is that bad. If it didn't smell its not regurge.

My corn leave me those fur plaits too usually a day or 2 after the main event.
