Poo question

[contracteryin]

Okay, so the new Leo I got for my friend I am assuming may be sick. Overall it looks physically fine, clear eyes, vent, and nose, running around, etc. The only reason I think something may be wrong is because of their poo. There will be around 4 a day. First one is all white and small, second is normal poo, third is like the first, and the last one is all brownish, and looks as if it were a fluid-like substance before it dried... and I've heard anything other then normal poo is bad. So, what do you guys think?

Sounds to me like your gecko is being taken care of well. I have only one question: Are you providing the gecko with a calcium supplement? It is recommended that leos be provided with a shallow dish of pure, powdered calcium at all times. In addition to the pure calcium, feeders should be dusted with a calcium supplement containing vitamin d3.

The all white excretement you describe sounds like urates (solidified urine) to me. This is normal. The loose feces your gecko passed could have been caused by a number of things such as stress, diet change, or parasites. It is always a good idea to have new arrivals' feces tested for parasites.

Yup, I do indeed have a calcium dish in there, as I do for my other two geckos. Speaking of stress, I wouldn't be surprised if that was it. They're around what... 3 months? and they were at Petco for some time before my friend decided they wanted it for their birthday. (It'll be in their house within the next week) So, I suppose that may be it. I do want to do a fecile though.
As far as the white, I know its basically their version of urine. One time on here someone said they had a gecko with only that, and another user said "go to a vet NOW" so I thought maybe something may be wrong xD I'm a worry wort, that's for sure.

Thank you very much by the way

Youngsters poop a lot. Yours sounds well hydrated. It doesn't sound like there's really a problem to be alarmed about. You haven't had it long enough yet to see any established habits, give it time to adjust to its' new home
