Regurgitated his Cricket?

[Lovey]

I'm not sure if this is a bad thing, I sure hope not. But we just got our Gecko yesterday and he's eaten two crickets thus far, but tonight about an hour ago my husband noticed he had regurgitated his last cricket from this morning.

What could be the reasoning for this? My husband did handle him a bit, could that be why?


Sigh, I do hope he's okay!! We had trouble with our first Corn Snake when we brought him home the breeder had fed him before giving him to us and it was a 40 min car ride home and we woke the next morning to a dead corn they did replace him. But I don't want to go through anything like that agian!!

I also found the dried shell of a cricket body, guesse that makes two regurges!

what are ur temps?

as well. what are temps? You always want to give your geckos time to acclimate before feeding them and handling, even leopards. 2 or 3 days for feeding and a week or so before handling him. I recommend this for people not familiar with geckos in general some with more experience may do otherwise.

thanks. we are checking his heat now because we were told the same thing. it's @ i believe 90.9F and not holdling him yet other than to try and feed (see our other post with his housing, bedding a no no for feeding we found out). So hopefully this doesn't happen again but keeping an eye on it and the heat
