poo colour

How long has he only been excreeting the white part? He could be impacted. Mine poop every other day or so.
Definately remove the substrate.

If he has been eating but nothing is coming out try soaking him in one to two inches of warm water in a bowl. I use a tub my cham can't climb out of and I watch him to make sure he doesn't drawn. DO NOT leave the room if you use something he can't get out of. I use this method to ensure a good warm soak. Sometimes my guys just sit and enjoy while others aren't as receptice to the idea.

You can't see the water level very well... but there's water in there lol

This was his offering the next day....

Lenny has weird poop tactics. I think hes a once a week kinda guy.... Lately I've been feeding him more Dubia and he hasn't gone in a few days.... I am expecting a mother load in the next day or so and might try soaking him today to be sure hes ok.

i think it is just the odd poo that is all cream so i suppose this is ok

re oyster shells i will remove these what shall i put instead? nothing??

 

[jojackson]

yes nothing at all. A clean cage bottom means nothing ingested that shouldnt be, it also means less area for nasty bacteria to grow. your chams #2's should be easy enough to clean up that way.

You can put down paper towels.

You can go with bare floor, newspaper, paper towels, reptile carpet, or plastic cage bottom liners. To add decor I just use the pothos vines draped over branches situated around the pothos pot to hide the bare flooring.
