I'm going to take a guess based on mammals so take it for what it's worth. His usual dark brown feces comes from the insects in his diet. If he has had a big plant meal lately his poo maybe lighter from that. If this only happens once I wouldn't worry too much and just keep an eye on it. If this persists and his appetite drops off then I would have him seen by the vet and take a fresh fecal sample with you.
