I have a Male Veiled he is about 8-9months old, he didn’t poop for about a week and a half and then he finally pooped but the poop was very large compared to any of his other poops I clean his enclosure once a week I would normally clean out 3-4 small ish poops, I figure it was because he didn’t poop for so long that’s why it was a bigger poop but it’s been another week since that poop and he hasn’t pooped again. I’ve also had to pull out 3 sperm plugs from him this week idk if that’s normal or could be affecting his poop. He isn’t showing any signs of impaction other than the lack of poop he’s still very active and still eating perfectly fine. I feed him 3 quarter size crickets every other day 5-8 of them which is something that has started more recently maybe about a month now I was told by the store I got him from that around this age I cut back his feeding to that many but a friend of mine who also has a Cham told me that that’s not enough for him and he should eat around 12crickets every other day, he use to eat 24small crickets every day. Is he pooping less cause he’s eating less or not eating enough? His temp for his basking range between 80-85degrees and his enclosure temp ranges between 75-70degrees during the day and at night with his lights out is between 65-68degrees. For his feedings I dust his crickets with calcium without D3 every feeding and he gets Vitamins and D3 2x a month. For his main light I use a reptisun T5 5.0 UVB bulb I don’t remember what I bulb I use for his basking light it was whatever bulb the chick on YouTube recommends (Neptune the chameleon). Idk if I’m doing anything wrong but him not pooping just worries me a lot
