Happy momma! Dexter hadn't pooped today and I didn't feel like cleaning out the tub to do a full bath for her so I just filled up the bathroom sink and put her in with the hopes that she would just go to the bathroom and I'd take her out. Well, it turned into a full 1/2 hour bath! She sat with her front feet on my hand and her nose buried in my palm and she actually closed her eyes. She then let go and swam a little on her own and let me massage her belly. I even let the water drip from the faucet and it didn't bother her one bit! I'm hoping now she will learn that she can actually drink water!

Too funny. Beardies won't poop everyday. They can actually go several days without pooping and that is normal. Many times a warm bath with massaging the belly will stimulate them. Sounds like she is doing great. :)

She used to poop in her tank once a day at the same time in the morning right after breakfast. The past few weeks she's only gone in the bath, but she's hated bath time. I tell her that as soon as she goes, bath time is over and within 5 minutes she goes, LOL!

You have trained her well! My bd has never pooped in the bath! He still poops almost daily but will skip a few days every now and then! :)
