Everytime I take my red arg. out of enclosure to roam around she uses the bathroom about every 5 min. She will walk around a little and the do butt wiggle and do her business. It comes out white the first time or so then its just clear liquid. Do they all do this or is mine special

. Just wondering because to be honest.....its a bit frustrating. Any help would be appreciated dearly. thank you

how often does it actually poop? The white stuff is called urates, it is pretty much powdered urine that lizards and snake put out. Does it poop solid, brown waste everyday, or just the urates and clear liquid. My Black and white poops once day, and urinates maybe twice. I wait till mine has pooped for the day, and then bring him out to roam.

Don't worry you will never get on our nerves by asking to many questions.PLEASE don't be afraid to as a lot of things.That's what we are here for.I don't want to scare you so please don't start freaking out.When he goes potty and he wiggles his but around does it look like he has a hard time pooping ? like he is trying to push hard but nothing comes out for except the liquid ? how does his vent ( butt ) look like ? does it look tight or does it look a little bit swollen and maybe a bit bruised ? when was the last time he ate and what was it ? do you feed him in his enclosure ? see now I'm the one asking a lot

.That's how we all can figure things out.I let you know more ones I get your respond.Thanks.
This is how the vent should look like.
