: : Continue with daily warm soaks, take a fresh fecal sample to the vet to check for parasites/worms, and make sure he has UV light and high temps for digesting his food properly. He could, indeed, have a blockage. Make sure his food is very wet. The vet would have to do an xray more than likely to tell if there was a blockage. Good luck and keep us posted.

: If he indeed had a blockage or an impaction, would he be going at all? When he does go, it is HUGE (like human size, but really long). Also, some crystal rock looking things come out when he does go...is that normal?
