Blue splotch?

[Adinar]

I am still having issues with the two new babies, but luckily today I was able to locate a vet about an hour or so from home that deals with reptiles. So hopefully by the end of the week coming up here I'll be able to get them in to be seen.

They've been eatting baby food every day this week, Obi especially likes it. But today, when I retrieved him from his tank I noticed his one side was a little dark. I didn't think much of it since he still has issues with bright light, I figured it was just his coloring. A few minutes later I took him in the bathroom to give him a quick soak (since they don't seem to activly drink either). When he scrambled onto my hand, squeaking what I assume to be profanities, to get out I lifted him up and noticed that I saw something dark on his stomach. I took a closer look and, much to my concern, there was a dark blueish splotch. Since his skin is so light and thin I can see most of his internal organs (not in great detail mind you), but for some reason this just looked out of place. Has anyone else noticed something like this? Or are we looking at a much bigger problem here?

do you have the gecko on sand??

 

[Adinar]

Nope. None of my guys are on sand. They're all either on a reptile carpet or papertowel.

sounds like a hernia to me.

All of my geckos have dark blue splotches. Some are bigger, some are smaller. They tend to be more noticable in the thinner geckos. There should be no reason to take the gecko to the vet, unless it just gives you some peace of mind, or unless the gecko actually appears sick.

The dark blue spot is the gall bladder...nothing to worry about.
