Foul smelling poop!

[Ninabina521]

My baby leopard tortoise is a year old and there name is squirt. Squirt has recently started pooping dark green, thick and smelling poop. It’s awful. He eats collard greens, turnip green and chard and sometimes kale. I’m not sure if it’s squirts food? Any advice would be great thanks.

Extra stinky poop is often an indication of parasites.
Do you have a good exotic vet near you?

Sounds like he needs more fiber in his diet. Mix in some grass or hay ( chopped small ) will help him make the most of his food

I'd be more concerned if his poop smelled good

It's never like Rose's. But that bad case of ROUNDWORMS that my group had years ago was extra smelly.
Noticeably more smelly. And loose.

Good to know.
