According to the poop expert she says
It's O.K, lots of things can change the color + consistency. In general I wouldn't worry about it.

It might have been caused by the sudden diet transition. Keep an eye on the poop, and if it stays that consistency for more than a few days to a week there may be an underlying problem.
His poop schedule may be irregular for the first week or two because of relocation stress. Overall, his poops should be firm green/brown (sometimes with yellow if he consumes a lot of yellow foods) with softer white urates.

It just depends on his diet- what you want to look for is dried out chalky looking urate- he would be dehydrated- no undigested food basking temps would not be high enough or runny real smelly like enough to drive you out of the room smell-- that could be parasites
