Fed little Plissken yesterday. Since the large pinky I fed him last time seemed a little too large too soon (he kept it down, but had me worried for 3 days), he got a medium sized pinky this time around. Well, tonight (26 hours later) I happened to glance over, and noticed the little fella was unusually active and not curled up in his warm hide like normal. After watching him get a drink I noticed he didn't have a visible bulge anymore. He also "yawned", which has me a little worried (atm I'm chalking it up to a "post drink mouth clearing"). I immediately freaked out and started inspecting his cage and found 2 poops. One was already dry and very standard baby poop looking (dry, black and white powder like bird poop), probably from earlier today. The other was still very wet and fresh. At first I thought the wet one might have been a regurge, but it looks more poop like (dark and slimy with whitish globules) than half digested rodent like. Also, both poops were in his normal poop spot.
So my current worry is, could this be a sign of a parasite infection? Would a day old regurge be so unrecognizable to be confused with a poop? Or could this just be a rapid digestion because his meal was smaller than last time?
