carrion is dead things, usually starting to rot.
if there's been no changes (even down to food supplier?) it could be that his bodyclock is slowing him down as they'd usually brumate this time of year. if his body slows down then his digestion and metabolism will too, meaning less nutrients are needed so more are passed through the body and excreted. this could be the reason for the change of faecal matter. |
