Thanks! I was hoping this was the case

So I was feeding a little zucchini earlier and accidentally spooked my Tino. When he pulled his head in a big gush of what looked like saliva (clear, little bubbles, slimy) came out of one his nose holes. I'm worried it might be a URI if it was really snot but it didn't look bad. Not yellow or...

Thanks again!

So here is a picture from this morning. Thoughts?

me too!!

Thanks so much for your response. I'm glad to say after some mazuri and all day grazing I haven't seen any loose stools in over a week! Yay! Actually almost two weeks now. I did not give the medicine and was waiting for one more episode to take him back to the vet but it hasn't happened. So...

I'm not totally convinced on the no parasite thing but I was told the sample was sent off to a lab for analysis and they said no parasite just some clostridium bacteria.

95% Grasses and weeds 5% celery squash Apple and bell pepper with calcium.

well it definitely is brown, but i have seen his urine also and it is crystal clear.

Problem is, I don't really trust the vet :/

I did and no parasites were noted but clostridium bacteria were seen.

I'm thinking (hoping) it's diet related because it's off and on and I feel like if it were parasites he would have diarrhea all the time. However, I don't know if that assumption is accurate.

Will a parasite infection result in constant diarrhea? By constant I mean no normal poop at all. My sully some days has diarrhea and other days perfect grassy logs...Any thoughts?

Vet called today. Said lab said there were clostridium bacteria but that it "might be normal". No parasites. Poop today was beautiful lots of moist yet firm brown hardly smelly "logs" with grass mixed in. No diarrhea for several days now. Since last week actually.

I don't doubt that someone does miss him. She kept him for a few days to see if anyone in the area would call her as she is a well known rescue around here. No one did
