Can an impacted reptile excrete ammonia?
Can an impacted reptile excrete ammonia?
Im noticing white chalky excretions in my tank but I'm not seeing any turds. Can the lizard still be blocked up or are they fine?

Stumbled in from /All. It's been a long while since I had a reptile, but I remember that I would soak my boy in warm water if I was worried he was backed up. Lizard turds are usually white tipped black/brown blobs, so it might be a good idea to give your lizard a shallow warm bath to soak in
Ok ty will do 🤘
A bath soak depends on the reptile. A chameleon? No. A bearded dragon? Sure!
But yeah, the white/white, yellow stuff is just urates that get extracted the same as turds and wouldn't worry about impaction now.
