Default normal?

Alright i noticed my gecko was about to shed its skin cause it started turnin all white and stuff so i came home today and lookin and he was shedding his skin right then. He would rub against the walls of his cave thing to rub the skin of then he would bite it with his mouth. The part that was worryin me was that he would pull it off with his mouth but then he would eat his shed skin. I was just wonderin if this is normal or if somethins wrong? And i know i post alot about stupid crap like this but i just get worried about the little guy and really appreciate the help

Hello,

its totally normal that geckos eat their skin when shedding.Only when the geckos are well fed,it is possible,that they dont eat their skin.

Hope,it helps you.

regards

Matthias
