Internal Bleeding? Impaction?

I am not home at the moment. It is in a rack which has been keeping good temps.

Internal bleeding usually looks black, like a bruise. What color sand was it on at the pet store? The fact that it's eating and pooped a little is good, considering it's a pet store gecko. A gecko with internal bleeding is usually lethargic, and would have blood coming out it's vent.

They were not on sand. I think because me and my friend complained about their baby leos being on sand months ago .

Last night I found this super hypo baby/juvie at a pet store for $20 and I need to fill my empty rack. I bought it pretty quickly without giving it a full look over but its belly looks bad. I have only owned one other baby so I do not know if this is a normal thing or if there is a problem. I am thinking it is a problem. Let me know what you think, please

It did eat some worms last night / today and poop.

Looks to me like a contusion, broken capillaries and scuff marks on the upper chest most likely a fall. If it was internal bleeding her blood pressure would have dropped causing her to become lethargic, cold which will end up in shock. I think she will be alright.

Do you believe she needs any thing special?

Not much you can do. Consider a vet check up visit as precaution.

Growing fat, sheddding, and it's belly is clearing up. Just a bruise it seems like.
