Water around poop?

Hey guys. So I went on my usual poop inspection to clean it for the day and noticed something that seemed odd. Her poop was a brown blob. Not mucous looking or overly runny. Just a brown blob...but what was odd was there was a lot of what looks like water around it. Like crystal clear water. I just changed her substrate today so she's probably really stressed, thus the loose poop but I've never seen clear liquid around it before. Also she was pooping normally as recently as last night and never had a problem prior. I noticed the past couple of days she's been drinking water a lot so could she just be over hydrated? Anyone know what this could be?

They also pee in addition to having urates. Perfectly normal.

Ok good. Her appetite has been fine also so I didn't think it was parasites. I just never knew they could actually pee. haha Thanks man. Is there a reason for when they actually pee instead of just the urate part?

:main_laugh: lol nice. So I take it if they drink more water than they need/can hold they just pee it out instead of the usual white urate?
