Regurgitated crickets?

[colleen0904]

So last night after my boyfriend and I fed the geckos we left the room for a few minutes. When we came back in, my bf went over to Orpheus and Athena's tank, and called me over. There were two crickets, that looked like they had been eaten and regurgitated. They had definately been eaten at some point, and unless geckos can miraculously poop out their food looking eerily similar to the way it looked when it went in, well... someone barfed.
What could be the cause of them regurgitating? I am worried sinc I know it is stressful for a gecko. What can I do to prevent it from happening again? And does anyone (weird question, I know...) have any pics of regurgitated crickets so that I can check to make sure that's what it really was? As gross as it is, I saved the crickets in a paper cup in case we have to take them to the vets, so I can show the vet. But for now, we are just watching them to see how they do. Any ideas?

Unless it happens on a regular basis its nothing to worry about. Sometimes they swallow them in an awkward position or simply eat too much.. and then up it goes.

Thanks for the response. We are still new to leos so of course we were freaking out... lol. It has only happened once and they seem okay otherwise, so now we are not too worried.

See if the gecko don't do that again. Check the temperature. Did you stressed much the gecko on that day? If the regurgitations continue you need to take to a vet because probabily it's parasits.

My Athena up-chucked a waxworm once (my hubby fed her 3!!!). It was nasty, but she's fine.
