My leo has recently been pooping in the poop corner which is solid, but slightly mushy, and there is a puddle of water around the poop about 1-2 inches wide in all directions. It smells awful. I do not see that white hard thing thats usually attached to the poop.

Whats going on with my leo?? Is she OK? Thank you!!!!!

im having same problem ,but mines only started since i changed my leos diet ,but the 2 latest ones hes had was a white stool with bit of water round it and last night was a white stool again but with what looked to me as an orange sort of melded in with the white ,but Runny poo can be caused from a parasite, only a urate (white part) can be caused from impaction, stress, change of diet.
this is what my leos urates looks like now it looks kinda reddy pink but its like an orange colour now but still no dark poo hope this helps

for impaction get a plastic tub and put water in make sure the water is 92F and get a lig with holes in and place the leo in there for about 20 mins this is ment to move the blockage if your leo has one ,try not to feed him for 2 days and see if his poos come back normal that the stage im at now make sure the temp in viv/tank is between 80-90f

What is your suppliment regiment? If there is too much betacaratene(cant spell) in the diet the urate will turn orange.yellow. Also it could be a parasite issue like pinworm/coccidea or crypto. I would get a fecal sample done at a vet.
