Yesterday when I woke up and took a look at my White's Tree Frog, I found a very long string of what seems to be mucus in his water dish, and there was another string still attached to his rear. I collected both and placed them in a bottle, and I'm worried he might have some kind of worms again. He had worms a few years ago, but I would find them in his poops (or close to since they would break out of it and move before dying). This time there was no poop, it was just a stringy substance, although there might have been very small traces of fecal matter, I'm not entirely sure since it might have just been substrate.
I don't really have an exotic vet around, he used to be close by but has moved. Can worms just.. leave like that or do they absolutely need to be in a solid poop? He acts like he always does, which is unlike the last time he had worms. He climbs all over the place and has a healthy appetite. As I mentioned, I saved what I found in a bottle, would a normal vet be able to identify if it's worms or not?
