Weird thing possibly in poop. Help!

[KirstenMarie]

My bearded dragon Medusa is 8 months old. We live in Oklahoma. It is almost summer and she is acting like she is in bromination. She has been eating and pooping less and trying to sleep earlier in the day. Her tank temps are 90 on one side and 110 on the other, her humidity is a bit high at 45 right now. I found something weird next to her poop. It is yellow and hard and I am unsure if she actually pooped it but I had just cleaned her tank and it was not there before. I am very concerned about her health.

The poop next to it looks good its formed and white urate--- its hard to tell what that other stuff is -- just keep an eye on her poop and if she does it again post another pic of it --- you should have 3 temps in the tank cool side 80's during the day 90's middle of the tank and basking 95-100 for a adult / juvie dragon --- all temps need to be taken w/ a digital probe thermometer NO stick ons they are inaccurate --- IR guns are good but cannot be used on hammocks ---- and certain decor materials -- thats why a digital probe is recommended -- NO coils for UVB they are inadequate for UVB -- especially in tanks 40 + gallon --- you need a long tube fixture -- NO colored bulbs NO heat mats and NO heat rocks --- if you need anymore help please ask

The second picture, was that ONE poo? Ur beardies face says it all , also it looks like shes in a 10-30 gallon enclosure ? Thats not good if she is, at the very smallest they need a 75gallon enclosure, but they absolutely thrive in a 120gallon, please let us know what bulbs/uvb , bugs/veggies ur beardie is getting, while i do agree the poo looks normal, the size of it and the amount of urate is a lil concerning, how often does ur brardie poo? And what is the feeding schedule, everyones beardies are different, i feed my girl every day and she poops everyday/every other day, if shes holding in her poo she might need more/better supplements (also vitamins can expire check ur dates)

it looks like an undigested worm, do you feed your lizard worms of any sort?

And that tank size looks horribly small. Tell me, what gallon size is that tank?

I feed her once or twice a day some days she eats mustard or turnip greens and dubia roaches typically and I occasionally add calcium powder . She has been only pooping once or twice a week and acts as if she’s in bromination
This is the lighting I use but the uvb is stronger than the one in the picture.

She hasn’t had worms in a few weeks she has been eating dubia roaches and greens recently. She is currently in a 30 gallon but I am getting her a bigger tank asap

UVB is stronger meaning your using the 26 Watt bulb ? If so that bulb needs to be unobstructed and in a reflective dome and approx 6-8 inches directly above the basking decor piece here is some info on that bulb
The 26w version of the UVB150 is similar in output to a T8 tube when using a reflector. The beam isn't as wide (depending on the length of the tube) but the output strength is very similar. If it was sitting about 6-8'' above the main basking area then it was likely providing adequate UVB. It's the lower wattage (13w) versions that cause concern since they aren't strong enough to provide adequate UVB at a safe distance.
I would however recommend getting it changed over to a long tube fixture UVB -- they are of better UVB -- if you need help at to what to get please ask --- I can post links for you --

That seriously looks like a worm of some sort, I would get that checked out by a vet in case of parasites.
