Ok so i just went to look at my baby leo and i saw that he/she has a blue spot under its belly its somewhat in the middle of its stomach/chest part. I've had this problem before and my gecko died it was something called Cryptosporidium. How can I tell if it is? Should I get my leo to a vet?


Please help TY

If it's small, it's ost likely it is the baby's gall bladder. Small geckos have visible gall bladders that fill and empty depending on the digestive cycle, so sometimes you will se it and sometimes not. If it's rather large, it could be the liver.

Since your other gecko had a very contagious illness it would be a great idea to take this one to the vet just to make sure there isn't anything wrong. Losing one gecko is devastating enough but two in a row would be terrible. I wish you the best of luck in getting a quick diagnosis.
