Nothing has changed in Willem's routine except that it has gotten better. His humidity is good..up around 70. Sometimes it get's up to 80. I reduce it when I see that. His temps are good. 89-90 on his basking side, low to mid 80s on his sleeping side. He eats very well some days other days he sort of picks. His poop is big and well formed with good urates. About a week ago he and I were sort of struggling with each other. When I would pick him up and hold him in front of me to show him who was boss(hahahha).....he would pee on me like a firehose. I couldn't believe it. Soaked the front of my clothes and then of course came the yukky poop.
He gets a bath every day and this morning is when the strange things happened. As soon as i put him in the water I noticed some little black pellets fell down. I didn't think alot of it and left him there to go clean his cage. When I came back there were maybe 30 on the bottom of the tub. I picked one up. They are hard round little black pellets. About the size of poppy seeds or sesame seeds.
Does anyone have any ideas? What could be happening with my Willie?

Whew! Those little pellets came from the tip of the thermometer I use to measure his tub temp. NOT from Will! Thank goodness! All is well again. Sorry for the false alarm.

LOL...I am REALLY glad it was a false alarm. While I was reading the first post I was wondering..."What the heck could that ig have eaten?"

Hi Nance-
Phew! Is right! I'm with Prism Wolf, I started thinking he must have ate something! LOL
Then, I cleaned up the little black pellets in my pants!
Glad to hear Willem is doing well and loving his new CbyD enclosure.
