Liquid pee?

Has anyone every seen this before in their geckos?
Is this normal? First time for mine I've seen this.
I gutloaded the mealworms spinach leaves and carrots. I left them for over 24 hours though, approx two days I let them gutload (since I forgot)
Could that be the problem? I've always done apples and carrots, maybe some lettuce. Perhaps I let it sit out too long?

Any insight would be awesome. You guys are the best. Love this forum

Disfigured and weird looking poop usually means there's something wrong with their body or what they ate. It shouldn't be a problem as long as it doesn't happen repeatedly. I breed my own mealworms, so as you can imagine, there's almost always food in there. There's no such thing as gutloading too much. I actually like using veggies over fruits, and I never use potatoes. I feel like veggies won't spoil the substrate of your mealworms as much as fruits, as fruits hold too much moisture, and might ruin or clump the mealworm bedding.

Liquid pee is normal. Probably most pee has liquid but that evaporates and we're left with the white part. I have tiles with slightly raised lips in my geckos' poop areas for ease of cleaning and frequently there's some liquid in there. Also, last night when I was helping a gecko get some shed off her toes she peed all over me --all liquid.
