Quite alarmed, I tried to find what it could be and ended up just scooping it up and took a whif and sure enough, it smelled like poop.
Any of you noticed this? The only change to her diet has been carrots. I fed her two days in a row last week, slightly smaller than the size of her head. Although, it smelled like waste, I'm not quite sure since it was floating.


When I first gave Crush and Squirt carrots (I did it a couple days in a row) their poop turned an orangy color. It actually looked like one of them pooped out a whole piece of carrot too.
