cuz then i know i'm not the "only one"!! LOL

PE made a VERY good suggestion + i am head-bobbing in agreement very emphatically ... get a fecal done to check for parasites!

also make sure temps are high/warm enough so food is getting properly digested ... (basic info, i know ...)
and, even if the temps are "just right", since she hasn't been in your care very long, her digestion could be a bit "off" just from the stress of moving, etc ... (tho it sure looks like she's adjusting just FINE!)

ok, all THAT said ...
very prob'ly it is bits of squash and as long as it is just *little* bits, no big deal ~ somethings just don't digest as well ...

as far as size of the pieces of squash you give her:
since igs don't *chew*, you want the food to be *thin*, not just small ... what worked for me is to alternate between using a vegie peeler to make thin slices and then the next day i'd make grated vegies ...

besides corn (*yech*), other things that don't digest well are the little seeds inside of kiwis ~ scared the *heck* outta me the 1st time i saw that!!! :)

*headrubbies for Myka*!!!
Bon.
