Since Grim had that impaction problem, she has been having a strange toilet habit...she seems to just poop anywhere, most notably right on her basking spot which seems very unusual. She used to only do it on the substrate or in the water, but now its like it just comes out before she has a chance to move. What could this be about? It is VERY unpleasant to clean up poop that has been baked onto the rocks at about 115f icon_sad.gif
