    If your garter is giving you turds I would be worried.
    Their feces is usually a wet mass. Usually two identifiable masses with a clear, watery binder.
    More dry feces can be a sign of dehydration or some other intestinal issue.
    Just my opinion.

    It usually has a small brown mass with white liquidy substance around it. Kinda like bird poop, but not as runny.
