(Poop pictures attached!)
Since getting my Russian tort Jezebel, I've been soaking her once a day. Since I made the water a little hotter, her escape attempts have reduced drastically (in lukewarm water, she was frenzied and trying to get out the entire time, but in much warmer water she'll sprawl out for a bit, drink a little, and lazily attempt to scale the walls of her tub--she's a Russian, after all!). However, every time I soak her, she ends up pooping out what essentially looks like undigested food, which is very different from her usual well-formed poops outside of soaks... She's never pooped normally in the water.
Why does this happen, and should I be worried? It seems like she totally empties herself whether the food's ready to come out or not!
