How often to gecko's pop on average? My guy has pooped, but only once so far I think. He is eating. The one poop he had was a pretty good one (or so it seemed). Nice and solid. I haven't checked today yet, trying to give him lots of relax time.

Varies a lot! Mine ranges from everyday to once a week <-- (I think he has constipation problems though). Every 2nd day seems like the norm.

When I first got my two, they kind of pooped twice a day (yea, always had to clean it lol) but now that they settled in, they are pooping every day. My other one ( a bit older) pooped every other.

I think my guy might be pooping under his tree, I didn't see any yesterday. I haven't seen him come out from under the tree either, though I peaked in this morning and he was alert and looking around. Hopefully he will relax soon, but I will have to peak under his tree tonight and make sure he is at least pooping somewhere!

They usually poop in a corner, and the same one normally. And never where they hang out all the time.

I haven't seen any more poop in my guys tank. They don't eat it do they? I know some animals do if they have a vitamin deficency of some sort.

Tomorrow I am going to have to move his tree and make sure, he has been eating so he should be pooping. The one time he did poop it was just randomly in his tank, not really in a corner.

When you first get them...they poop in the most random places until they finally pick a place and consistently go to one spot. Sometimes it can be an odd place too, like one of my friend's geckos have decided that one of the hides will be his washroom and fills the hide up with poop lol

Another place that mine seems to like to poop is on me... -_-" lol

My lil guy (or girl im actually not sure what sex it is yet) Poops everyday. And its a mixture of brown and white. I am told thats perfect because the white in it shows that he is eating and getting the calcium stuff.
And I was lucky cause from day one he has always pooped in the very same spot. Makes for nice easy fast clean up
