Hi and welcome aboard. 

Your question and background is VERY vague.  With the information provided it's difficult to think about answering. 

More detailed information provided the easier to get an answer. 

 

From googling.....

 

 

Mucus in stool can occur due to a number of possible reasons, including: 

 

Normal amount

A small amount of mucus in stool is normal and helps keep the colon lubricated. 

 

Intestinal infection

A large amount of mucus in stool, especially when accompanied by diarrhea, could be a sign of an intestinal infection. Infections can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites, and can lead to other symptoms like fever, vomiting, and abdominal pain. 

 

Food intolerance or allergy

Food sensitivities can cause inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, which can lead to excess mucus. 

 

Dehydration

Dehydration can cause excess mucus in stool, but it usually goes away on its own. 

 

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

This functional gastrointestinal disorder can cause changes in bowel habits and mucus in stool. 

 

Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis

These inflammatory bowel diseases can cause mucus in stool, and bloody mucus or mucus with abdominal pain may be a sign of a more serious condition. 

 

Colon cancer

A noticeable increase in mucus in stool, especially if accompanied by other symptoms, could be a sign of bowel cancer. 

 

If you're concerned about the amount of mucus in your stool, or if you're experiencing other symptoms, you should consult your doctor.

 

Hope this helps.

6 months on carnivorand having mucus in stool. Just looking for answers.

Hard to say. Have you had this before? Have you had this the whole time? Or is this a recent issue?

It could be temporary from being ill or eating something that may have been going bad. You would expect this to resolve in time.

If it doesn't resolve, gets worse, or is accompanied by blood (dark blood in the stool, not light blood on the toilet paper from a hemorrhoid or over-wiping) then you may want to see a doctor. It could be anything from anxiety to ulcerative colitis - which I used to have so i know what it's like to have snot on the wrong end.
