Hello everybody, I would like to start off by saying this has actually been happening for awhile but I just now realized this. So my piggy bailey has an occasional poop that has a weird sticky tail and if u pull on the tail this weeks snotty/mucus stuff pulls up. It’s sticky and almost has the form of snot, it’s very light brown and is not on all of her poops, the picture down below has a picture of it but that was after I messed with it and picked it up, it was more spread out and not in a ball shape like that. She seems herself besides that, I’m just worried this is something serious...again it doesn’t happen on all her poops just a few here and there😓😓sorry for the terrible pictures, the snotty stuff is right above the poops it almost looks glossy in the picture?!?

Poo with a little tail is sometimes a sign of an (mild) upset tummy. I’d say take her off veggies until her poos are back to normal for 48 hours.
