Two pools of BLOOD URGENT

[msebar]

My male and female was introduced the other day after being sererated for a bit. The male grabed the female by the leg and I was told this is was normal. Well after a bit they stoped and the male started to lick himself which I found to be normal. In the morning I came to look at the tank and there was 2 pools of blood in the center of the tank. This freak me out with a Holy Shoot (Well not shoot you know what I mean. I open the tank and inspected the female and the male only to find no cuts at all. I did do a very long inspection of both. WHERE DID THIS BLOOD COME FROM????. Was he maybe a bit rough on her. I know this was not the first act between these two as I have 2 babies from them. This is driving me crazy

The exact same thing happened to me. My first time breeders this year, Apollo and Aphrodite mated. They were getting along fine afterward while I was feeding the other geckos so I left them together over night to make sure the deed was done right lol. I checked on them in the morning and found dried blood trailed/splattered all over the tub. I separated them... inspected both for wounds or any dried blood. Found nothing, except for some dried blood on the bottom of Apollo's tail. So I took them to the vet and vet said nothing was wrong and to just keep an eye on them for a few days and keep them separated for now.
I had the same "holy shoot" moment when I opened the tub that morning lol.
Check under his tail for dried blood. Take to the vet if you're still worried.

Hope that helps.

Well found another pool of blood the size of a quarter. Not one scratch is on them and I inspected both with strong reading glasses. Mouth and private areas. Both are eating and moving about. Where can this blood be coming from?????

If there are no wounds at all, then it can only be coming from mouth or vent. I'd get them to a vet to get checked out if they are still bleeding from somewhere.

Id def take to a vet too, to double check, but they're teeth are so fine it could be from somewhere on the tail. When my male gets really excited he bites the tails first

I had the same thing happen to my male. Took him to the vet and I told the vet he was a first time breeder and the vet told me sometimes a first time breeder male can ejaculate blood from his vent.

Well this would be his second time having fun this year. No blood yesterday or this morning.

Thanks I will keep a good eye on him.

If there is no apparent injury seen on either geckos, it is probably "hemo-ejaculation". It's not real common, but I have experienced this several times especially with male breeders that are 'new'' with the females. When they ejaculate semen some blood can come out with it. It really isn't that serious unless it continues, then I would remove the male for awhile. Here is another thread on this topic:
