View Full Version : Undigested stools
Got my two geckos they're in a 10 gallon tank that is split in half one on each side. They have a heater a hide and a uv light but when I fed the mealies to them the stools seemed to be undigested they are 9 months and I got them saturday.Any input is great

They couln't digest the exo skeletons.
Try feeding them less at a time.
Give them a worm with a few crickets, it should work
Yes, what Siretsap said. :)
It's also a good idea to double-check your temperatures with either a digital thermometer or a temp gun to make sure their basking spot is hot enough. Too cold equals indigestion.
I've seen alot of posts about poop. Anybody want to post a pic of a healthy poop just so everybody knows?..
did the undigested stool have white stuff (urate) on it? if it doesnt it might be a regurgitated item and not undigested poop
o u might wanna get them a bigger tank too. they might be stressed splitting a 10 gallon
The stupid breeder raised them totally on mealies they've never touched a crick and they won't eat them

lots of breeder raise leo's on just mealies....try feeding him the white, freshly shed ones and see if that helps. and make sure he doesn't eat too many at one time, to make digestion easier. keep trying with the crix, tho. with the fast movement of the crix, i would think he would end up eating them.
