So my gecko was just sitting on my lap and started flipping around and gaging and threw up. Itbwas a big ball of his skin. But he did that right after I brought him downstairs. Could he have gotten motion sickness?

I strongly believe, based on your past topics, that it could be something related to why your gecko isn't eating. You shouldn't be handling it and adding further stress to it.

Could you please fill out this questionnaire:

You have been asked multiple times to do so on both of your past posts concerning your gecko. We all want to help you and your animal, but we need more information to figure out what seems to be the problem with him!

The weird part is that he eats wax worms fine. But ignores everything else. Drinks fine. But Ive had him for about 6 months. Thinking it is male. About 7 inches, I have new pics of his new setup on here I think. The only reason I picked him up was because when I was putting water in his dish he walked up and started crawling on my hand which he has never done before. So I got excited and picked him up.

Forget about motion sickness. You have posted 3 threads and was asked to provide information which you have refused to do. We cannot help you if you do not provide all the information we need. He has obviously been ill and the last thing he needs is to be taken out of his enclosure. Please stop handling him and take him to the vet. Either he is really ill or he threw up due to the stress from carrying downstairs.

It's futile. He isn't going to fill out the questionnaire, the gecko will continue to have issues, he just expects us to respond to his questions with advice he will not follow.

Calling vet tomorrow, like I mentioned only handled him because he crawled up my arm. I'm done with that. Does anyone have an idea of what kind of diesase this could be?

Indeed, because it takes a lot for me to feel like this:bomb:

he is still not been sexed yet.

he is about 7 months, cant weigh him.

owned for about 6 months

was obtained from pet co

started handling 3 days ago. not very much

only way he is acting different is because he always would be outside his hides but now he always is in them. and not eating.

his fecals are very small. last time he went was 4 or 5 days ago.

the problem is that he is not eating, threw up, and not taking time shedding correctly.

he recently changed his housing, from a 10 gal glass tank to a 20 gal plastic tote.

it has a paper towel substrate.

3 hides, one log, one from the petco box and one from a glad container. the glad one is filled with paper towel balls for his shedding that i wet down. its about 90 degrees.

heating source is heat lamp and UTH (red lamp at night)

no cage mates.

his normal diet before was switching between crickets and mealworms, i dust the mealworms in calcium powder.i put 5-10 mealworms in the dish and let 3 crickets in at a time.
