Alex hasnt pooped in two days. Its very irregular he always poops once a day. I rubbed his tummy yesterday and today with no results. What else should i do that may work better? And should i not feed him more until he poops?

Hi, i know it is irregular but a couple days is nothing to worry about. You can try to give him a warm soak. You can also keep feeding him.

The reason im scared to keep feeding him is that is belly was very firm and he is much fatter and rounder than normal. He feels like if i feed him more he could get sick.

And when i rubbed his tummy he was in a warm bath

A few days without pooping isnt a huge concern. Good to give a warm soak...and usually they won't eat if they arent hungry or feeling ok. I would still offer food

Well ive had him for three months and this is a first

Their habits change as they get older. Mine went to pooping in her tank every day to only pooping in a bath.

Hes okay i think. He pooped before bedtime yesterday
