Ok, I know this is a gross questions but I am worried about Jaden so I'm just gonna throw this out there and see if anyone has any ideas...

For the past three days or so Jadens poop, on the inside has been like a dull burnt orange. It looks brown on the outside but when I pick it up to throw it away and kind of breaks apart and that's when I see this color.

About two weeks ago he had tapeworms and the Vet gave him medication to get rid of the problem so I'm wondering if this is just a result from that?
I've heard that sometimes you can catch something that is wrong with them by the change in their poop so I thought instead of feeling too silly for asking this question I'd go ahead and ask it in case anyone knows of anything this might be a sign off.

He doesn't eat carrots or sweet potatoes, at least not for a while now, and his food is brown so I am very confused.
He goes back to the vet on the 27th he's booked solid before then but do you guys think this is a problem?
